It’s That Time Again…

What is it that brings mom and dad out a few evenings each week, on freezing winter nights, in drizzling rain and early Saturday mornings?  As the weeks of practice and interrupted evening plans blossom into friendship and new bonds with other parents as we cheer together from the sidelines.  As we watch our little guys (and girls) fight and battle with such determination and drive over one little ball, you know soccer season is in full swing!
Here is our youngest in action on the soccer field:

    We start baseball this week, and this year I'm ready. I bought a case of handwarmers at Costco during the winter season, the only time they carry them. I'll be putting blankets and snacks in the cars soon. We're still in the rainy season. Brr! Enjoy cheering on your man-cub!

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits.

Word Filled Wednesday – Act Justly
