Parents tug of war games and more: An eventful day

To support our children and make their biannual sports festival memorable, all parents were encouraged to participate, as our presence and enthusiasm would make the event memorable for everyone involved.

It was a fun-filled event, not just for our kids but for parents too. The event started from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. today, so you can imagine the long hours spent for this sport festival and the games covered by both the students who are the main center of the event, the invited students from other schools who came to compete with Ennyston school students, and then the proud parents.

This video highlighted only the games played by parents in the event today, which are: tug of war;this session was a game between mommies and daddies of the school, and you will see in the video how my able co-mothers defeated those hefty men. Haha, it was fun as we dragged the men to the ground. History has indeed repeated itself. This is because, the last two years, during the same sports festival, we mothers won them; obviously, because we are more in number, daddies hardly show up at school events. We understand their responsibilities anyway, but being there for our kids is still part of parenting. The kids will grow to tell the story of whether they were there for them or not.

The second part of the video highlights PARENTS' MARCH PASS. We visited the school last Saturday for the rehearsal, and today we did it to our capacity vs. the dancing session. It was fun, and I am sure most parents loved the experience.

The last part of the video is the 100-meter race by mothers. Wow, it's been a while. I ran a little distance, but then I was so surprised at how I won the race🏆🏆🥇🥈🥉🏅🎖️🏆. The captain was just screaming my name, Mrs. MBA, and I got more encouragement to keep racing 🐎 until I reached the finish line and collected this awesome medal and a gift that follows it.

I opened the gift, and behold, it was a beautiful bedspread. I love the color so much, and I felt fulfilled and excited. My kids watched me run, and they were so happy seeing that I won the race. I equally felt like a proud parent. The feeling of emerging as a winner is always extraordinary. I couldn't hold the excitement, but I kept expressing my joy in different shots.
