Last Saturday was Grant's first soccer game. It was a cold, windy morning, but he was ready to go! Each player plays equal time, but Grant did get to play quite a bit. It amazes me how many kids just don't want to get out there and play. There are kids that run off the field to check out a patch of dandelions and there are little girls that just twirl in the middle of the field or lay on the ground while the other children just continue to play around them. It was rather entertaining! I did video tape all of the plays that included Grant ... but, now ... I have to figure out how to convert these video clips from my video camera to put them up here. I ordered the software that is, of course, "proprietary" for this particular camera and they can't "just give it to me" so when that comes, you can all see Grant's GOALS! Yes ... I said GOALS! The final score of the game was 3-1 and Grant scored two of the goals! It was very exciting! And, when they clips get put up here, you'll hear how excited I was for him! "Go Grant...Go Grant! YAY!" He had a great time and cannot wait until Saturday's game.
Tomorrow is Grant's birthday ... he is going to be FIVE! When I think back to the time when he was born ... it just amazes me that this time has flown by so fast! He is turning into such a neat kid. Sure, he can be very (and I do stress very) frustrating at times, but he is really neat. When he isn't being a snot ... he is the sweetest, most creative ... just the neatest little boy to be around. We have a special day planned for his birthday and I just hope that he has fun! We will, of course, take a time out around 2:00 so that he can get his nap in. He is such a BEAR without it ... and hopefully we'll finish off the afternoon with Horton Hears a Who and then off to dinner with Papa and Nana.
Be on the look out for more pictures! I'm going to try to get those up as soon as possible (although Todd and I will be in MEXICO - Ha! - until Thursday...so maybe not until next weekend). Thanks for reading ....
