The dreaded day has arrived. I put it off as long as I could. Children get older, and I'm gettin' older too. It was a cold but fitting start. Evan's first soccer game, which seems so foreign to me. There was only one kid at my school who played soccer and he was a little "different". But it's what all the cool kids do here--and Evan asked us if he could play this year. I think he was the only one on his team who had never played before. He did a great job and was a surprisingly good defender.
Lesson learned: 1) bring a chair and 2) a not-cranky four year old
