If you read the title of this blog post, it may be a given which boy in the photo is mine. He is surrounded on three sides, all of them with the same goal – kick the soccer ball.

My son plays AYSO soccer, and even though he whines about going to practice and even playing the games, he does a respectable job of playing. Saturday’s game was a good one for him. After sitting out the first quarter, he played offensive for the next two quarters before finishing up as a defender. His team one, and I was proud of the effort he put into the game.

Now if I could only get him to be happy about it and stop whining!
