Latin, Pyrrhic and Baseball Victory

Many things came together nicely this last week....closures..all good.

Russell's Minor Leaue Team won their division Championship, amidst major cheering and exulation. I had NO idea I could muster such enthusiasm over a baseball game.  I'm proud of my fella...

This evening, I'm correcting Sophie's Latin (YES, we're STILL doing school), and I come across a sheet where she's been given a little synopsis of who Pyrrhus was and what it means to win a Pyrrhic victory.  Here is her example:

Kar-Kare beat Love Chevy, but it was a Pyrrhic victory, because they lost to Davis Orthdontist!

I'm just bursting with momma pride....
