December 3, 2005

Forever in history as the first day C scored a goal. :o) Then, there were three more that weekend at this tournament. And three assists to add to that tally. Amazing.

What a rush, what a great time, what a wonderful feeling to see our squirt so happy, so excited to have *finally* done what he has been working for for nealry 5 years.

Oh, there have been other goals. During scrimmages, and during practices, and 3 on 3's, one on one's and then that goal over the past summer .... that was called back! But this, this was extra sweet, because he contributed to the overall WIN they had at the tournament too! They won the entire gig!

What a terrific weekend away, and to be able to bond and get to know so many wonderful parents too .... this is truly what childhood sports is all about. I am so grateful that we can give the kids these experiences .... and also be such a big part of those experiences. I am on cloud 9 right along with him, and with S and K. This is a moment to revel in ... a moment to remember.

and best of all, K is starting too ..... her first meet will be in January! What a WOW!!!! More memories to pack away with us all.

Ah, the joys of loving, the joys of raising kids, the joys of living!
