Kaden has been excited for weeks to participate in his first Pinewood Derby. Papa helped Kaden cut out his car since Mark and I were gone on our cruise. When we got home, Kaden and Mark got to work putting the car together and decorating it. Kaden was so proud of it! Now for those of you who know Kaden, know that he can be very sensitive about almost everything. He kept saying that he hoped he would win and we kept telling him it wasn't about the winning. We knew that if his car didn't do well we were going to have a train wreck of a child. When it was Kaden's turn to race for the first time, all we prayed for was that his car wouldn't come in last. Low and behold it came in second. We were so relieved! Every time his car had to race we just prayed that it wouldn't come in last. It came in first from then on. It was sooo exciting! It was fun to watch him and his friend cheer for the other cars in their troop. We combined with another ward and so for the results Kaden came in 2nd. He was 1st in our ward. It was truly an exciting day for our Kaden and a huge relief for his parents.
Getting ready to race.
Yeah Baby!
