Yesterday was the first day in the valley it has really felt like spring as arrived. It was beautiful.
We started our day out watching Dylan play soccer. When you watch little kids play soccer there are always things you can count on. They don't pass on purpose, they all want the ball and in certain moments time stops. For example, we were at the opposing teams goal. A young man was about to shoot and everyone froze. They almost always do. It is like they just see that moment as his and don't try and stop him. I am watching this moment and thinking they are about to score when this blurr come out of nowhere. He kicks the ball away and the young man doesn't score. I am excited by this moment because our team has succeeded in maintaining the score, I am ecstatic about this moment when I see it was my son that kept moving when everyone else stopped. What a block!!! Dylan comes up to me later and describes, just like I saw, how his team just stopped and how he didn't. He was very proud of himself.
You and Dylan should be proud. Sounds like you might have a soccer star in your family. I hope for good weather for you and Dylan and many more soccer blocks.
