Mondays have always been hectic in our house.  It is Kevin's day off, Zack starts the school week again and another week of chaos starts...  Having a child with ADHD is a constant daily struggle, never know what personality we will get that particular day, especially it being a Monday. This past Monday was especially challenging, not only because it was dreaded Monday but because Zack was trying out for the school basketball team and the roster was being posted today during school... Kevin and I anxiously awaited for Zack to get home after school, we would support him and of course be proud of him no matter if he made the team or not... After school Zack gets home and appears to be in a good mood, this could be scarey or not, could be the sign of something good. I ask Zack about the team and he tells me he didnt make the team, he is saying this with a grin on his face so deep down I am relieved that he made the team and super excited for him.  As it turns out he did not make the team, but he is still in a good mood and still smiling. Not sure if Zack is trying to put on a strong face for me even though he is upset or if he truely is ok with not making the team.... Zack told us that he is happy he tried out for the team and said it was a good experience and that 3 of his buddies were mad and upset that he didnt make the team and that made him feel good... I am so proud of Zack and his courage for trying out for the team. He told me "mom things happen for a reason and it wasnt my time to be on the team"  that just melted my heart!!! I love him so much and I am sooo proud of the little man he is starting to become....
