The Force

I am up making a "purse" cake for a Tea Party for C, so I thought I'd blog a little. (this cake spends a lot of time in the fridge & freezer before it can be finished)

This is E's team The Force! We decided to play Soccer through Keller Soccer Association. We've played w/ them before but it had been a year or so. E's team did very well, there are some talented boys on that team. After the first few games E had caught up and began contributing to the game much more than at first.
It has been a good season. E has grown as a soccer player and a boy. There was one day when he did NOT want to go to practice because there was a bully on the team. J had to work & couldn't be there w/ him for those practices and I couldn't watch him up close to know what was going on. I had the other 3 to keep an eye on. He wanted to quit- but you know, we all have to deal w/ bullies in life. All the way into adulthood. Some people never grow up. I felt this was something E needed to work through and not let some other person ruin something he enjoyed. And we called in Pappa Chewy to sit up where he practiced (for moral support). Thank-you so much Pappa for doing that. It might not of seemed like much, but your presence really made E feel better about being there. We Love you & appreciate you sooo much! Everything was great after he dealt w/ that. This Saturday is his last game & then it's on to Flag Football! It's gonna be good!


Love E's shorts..they are crooked,:). and can the grass be any more yellow?


seriously, these are the worst photos ever (photography 101 - don't take pics in direct sunlight) BUT it proves a good point, people will pay no matter what for a picture of their kid. I know I am complaining - but it's late & I could have done a heck of a lot better on those pics & it'd be FREE!
BTW, E looks so cute! I LOVE that kid. Look at his little smirk.
