Logan's derby race was last Friday and it was an exciting time! Logan has been ready for this day since last October when they handed out the derby cars. He built it the very next day and has been playing with it ever since. I was a little nervous because he wanted to build it the way he wanted it and really didn't want advice on how to make it the winning car. Plus, he has seriously been playing with it and showing it off for 3 months now. When we got there, we did have to make a few changes to add some more weight. Thankfully they had a pit row and we were able to make it weigh in right at 5 oz.
Well, our little man won 1st place in his den and he was thrilled! You can see him jumping up as his car crosses the finish line. I have no idea how they do it but it raced down quite a few times, pretty much against all the cars in his den. He was so, so, so excited! He went on to race against the top 3 from each den and did not win the championship. One of my boys in my class won it so we were excited for him. Logan was just happy to have won what he did. And, he had a great time. From the beginning, we have told him it is all about having fun and he definitely did that!
Way to go Logan! On the way home he said, "I had another best night of my life tonight!" I just love this little man!
