Life shouldn't be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather, to skid in broadside, throughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly shouting..."Wow! What a ride! Thank You Lord!"

Soccer started today!

Warm-up: Jonny is on the left.
Jonny asked a question and is getting the answer.
Jason is in the middle (green shorts, gray shirt.) This is part of about two minutes that Jason actually played.
The rest of the time this is what he was doing. Hanging out with daddy seemed better than getting "knocked down by the kids." Even though he was never knocked down, this was my 4-year-olds reason for not playing.

All-in-all I feel pretty good about how today went. Jonny was confident and never shy (he has been really shy in the past but is starting to grow out of it.) Jason was better than I thought he'd be. No crying, and at least he participated some. I was glad Isaac could come. When Jonny played baseball he was supportive, but never REALLY into it. Soccer is his thing, he used to play a lot when he was a kid, so he was totally into it today. That helps the kids get into it. The wonderful thing for me was that I got to socialize with other moms. :) As a side note, there are beautiful views from the fields.
