Pint Sized Spirit

It's indoor soccer season for the little tikes here in town. We, once again, are on the best team - meaning kids and parents, but they've also won all their games so far. Only one team that seems to be a possible match (watch out Rachel!). Here's Grant listening to his coach (this is the same team and coach that Jason has coached with for outdoor soccer and t-ball) but we have some new kids this year (conveniently in Grant's grade at school!).

Did I mention these are at 8:00 AM on Saturday mornings?? Yep, we'll be leaving our house in eight hours for tomorrow's game - nothing like a lazy Saturday! These following two pictures are the main reason for this blog entry. Skip back to a few months ago when Jason was making the OSU football team their mouth protection - Grant thought it was the coolest thing ever. So, here's a mini-me just like the big guys. Only ours is for indoor soccer. And trampoline jumping. And baseball playing. And walking. And going to read books. And to show all of our neighbors. Luckily, I have now realized that he loves this guard so much and have established a few rules (aka no wearing to school or bed).

(up) just a day in normal clothes at home wearing it and (down) at a soccer game.

I am so glad that he can be so proud of his Daddy and his work!
