I never thought that this day would come for another 5 years or so, at least until they are teenagers. But it has arrived. They have officially outspeed me on the hills. It's such a strange feeling - mixed of frustration and joy. The competitiveness inside me still thinks that I could totally outski/snowboard them yet the cautiousness (of being a mom) has slowed me down. On the other hand, there's the motherly pride that my kids have "outgrown" me. I am going to give myself another season to reassure that this is really happening. Just cannot not be that these 2 daredevils have beat me on the hill.
