Darren got fitted for his football pads yesterday evening! First he had to sit through a parent meeting , which for him, was excruciating. All he could say was, "when are we going to get my uniform?". Fitting him was a challenge because he could barely stand still he was so excited, but Mr. Ham was a patient and understanding man. I was nervous and worried, I thought the pads should be bigger. Kamryn snacked on a bottle in between cat naps, nothing bothers her. And Zach, well... I thought he might just explode with pride. For those of you who have witnessed him after the birth of our kids, that smile, that ear to ear grin, it was back yesterday. Darren wore his pads back to the truck and "tackled" every tree, metal pillar, and whatever else we passed, and Zach was giving him pointers every step of the way. They practiced his "game face" and he even dove into the sand volleyball court, the boy is convinced he is invincible in his pads. His first practice is tonight, wish us luck!
