Top Ten Tuesday

The Top 10 Things I Learned about Motherhood by Being a Cheerleader:
10.  The ability to yell loudly is a God-given gift.
9.   Working really hard at perfecting the splits will only get you the ability to do the splits.
8.   The short, skinny girls can fly through the air because the taller, bigger girls are the foundation of the world.
7.   Boys smell bad.
6.   Knowing how to execute a takedown is worth far more than 2 points in real life.
5.   Never underestimate the importance of appropriate undergarments.
4.   A last minute, game-winning basket can make up for a whole season of misses.
3.   Just because a girl is happy does not mean she is shallow.
2.   Cute shoes do not keep your feet warm at football games.
1.   Cheering when it seems hopeless is far more important than cheering when victory is certain.

And being a mom to two cheerleaders and having been one myself, cheerleaders can smell bad too! And I would rather have the cute shoes and cold feet anyday. But I am always on the look out for cute warm shoes, because I do say, that when in doubt the cute shoes are always the right choice.

LOL! #5 is cracking me up; that could be a good slogan for Hanes :) And #1 is so true, but we often forget that.

Okay Dork Sheri, proof read yourself. While #10 may be a "gift," it does not mean you will win the match!
