Humbled

I was feeling pretty good about myself after the weekend, when I scored two huge victories, both against a 5-year old boy. The first was in a Wii video game (my first ever) and the second was in a 20 yard sprint race up a hill in the snow. You might be asking "what person in their right mind beats a little five year old'? Well, if you heard the kind of trash talking this little man was throwing at me, you would have given it your all too. Plus, nothing gives you more street cred with a five year old than beating him at Wii. Anyway, to say I was feeling strong and confident is an understatement.  Then I went to practice today and was reminded that the big kids are actually big, and they swim fast, and I am barely able to hang on for dear life. So now me and my ego are firmly planted on the ground, where they belong, until I can convince my 3 year old nephew to play the matching game, which I am really good at btw.
