Somewhere Inbetween

When you have a 13 year old, you're never quite sure what to expect when it comes to how they act. One day they can act like a child, then next like a mature teen (that can also be one minute, then the next). I saw that this weekend with Morgan.
Mature Morgan did this: Joked with the opposing basketball team, never lost her temper when she was knocked down (twice), smiled after losing a heartbreaking game and congratulated the other team. She also made the mature decision not to play softball this summer (first time since she was 4), because she didn't feel accepted into this team and that the other players weren't as serious about the game as she is. She did this before I paid her fees...for this I'm eternally greatful!
Child Morgan did this: tried putting off cleaning her room and bathroom. She also had a great time at a Colorado Chills basketball game by goofing around with a bunch of mascots that were there from all the CO sports teams, did the "kid tunnel" for the players before the game started, danced at timeouts with all the mascots and generally had a blast, not caring what others would think.

I'm not sure which Morgan I prefer....probably the best of both of those.
