Youth Football

Today was it.  The playoff game for Spring Youth Football, we're going to the SUPERBOWL!!!
It feels almost like the Superbowl next weekend is the end of a chapter in our lives.  Will we still be at the field? Yes, our boy will be playing.  Will we still be there to cheer on the other kids that we know and love? Of course!  But it will be weird, not having anything that needs to get done, no paperwork to complete, no checking in and making sure other people are getting their projects done and don't need help.  It's the end of a season in our lives, and the beginning of a new one.  A new season filled with bigger boys playing football, getting to be at our boy's game and just be parents, getting to do things together, not stay at the field all day to make sure that everything there gets done.  So as sad as I am to see it go, I'm looking forward to what's ahead for our family.

Tomorrow is Sunday, it's church day as our kids say... I love walking home from church with them... watching the big kids walk with their "other brother", typically talking about something that happened at church.  Doesn't always mean that it was something in the sermon... truthfully it could have been when that one guy sneezed really loudly... but hey, at least they were paying attention to something!!
