Midweek Randoms

1. M-  We are at week 3 of having to leave the soccer game early. J had a big game on Sunday, it was one of those tough, physical games you did not want to leave. I had to get C off to his practice so we left our little kiddie corner on the soccer field (where all the other siblings hang out to entertain each other) to slowly walk to the car. I really thought I could catch another 20 minutes of the game but then our team scored - Yay for them, bad for M. We were right behind all the parents and the cheering started. M held his breath for minute then let it out. The sideline got really quiet. I was rushing to get him out of the stroller so I could quiet him down, that was not working :( Thankfully A just sat in the stroller without a care in the world. After finally calming him with juice we started towards the car and the other team scored. Their parents went crazy. The crying started again! I just rushed to the car, threw everything in then off we went. After I dropped off C I received a text from Eric that J played incredible and helped with the final goal of the game. Ugh, my heart sank. I was so excited they pulled off this win, they worked so hard for it but I was so disappointed I missed it. It is so hard to juggle all of the schedules especially when you have a little one that does not like loud noises, not a good thing with a house full of boys! I am just praying he grows out of it quickly!!

2. A and M-Look at these smiles, after everything we went through at the game we came home and this is what I get. The tears we both shed on the way home get washed away with the pure joy that these two show. They were so happy to be home in their environment to run free around the kitchen island.

3. J- This picture cracks me up. J is that tough middle child! He is a solid soccer player, he may be a little smaller but he will not back down. Yes, he is the one pulling the shirt! I laughed that the few pictures I did take I catch this play. Nice J!! Next time maybe you should not do this in front of the parents :) He reminded me he did not get a call and the other player was shoving him---hahaha, nice try.

4.  L- The countdown is on his for his daddy/son getaway. Last night he asked if they would have to leave early Thursday to get to the football game. I reminded him he was only going 45 minutes away! He is so excited to see Miami take on UNC for Thursday night football next week. It is going to be a long 7 days while he counts down.

5. C- Midterms are coming up for high school. Enough said! We could use your prayers preparing for and taking these exams!!
**had to include this picture of C with his cousin. He is so good with the little ones, they just melt into his arms!**

 

Hope everyone is having a great week!!!
