Soccer. Sort of.

Fall soccer practice started back a couple of weeks ago -- right in the middle of our Memphis heatwave. Practice, for now, is in the church gym, which is always cool but can bring challenges to dribbling. Picture seven 5-year-olds chasing balls up and now the court as they practice dribbling. It brings great entertainment on Sunday afternoons.


Last fall, we spent a good amount of time coaxing Jack back onto the soccer field after he'd wander off. We're hoping for a longer attention span this fall and for a little more endurance. So far, so good. Well, better at least. True to form, though, Jack still makes sure to find time to socialize during practice. Here he is with his friends, Anna, and Grant.




Meanwhile, Ben is still itching to get in the action.
