The season is officially over. We had Mikey’s soccer party tonight at Straw Hat Pizza, where pretty much every child has celebrated the end of season at least once in their life. The allure, of course, is the oodles of video and arcade games. They could care less about the cardboard-like pizza.
The coach gave a two sentence speech on each of the boys during the trophy “ceremony.” We were supposed to guess who he might be talking about before he announced the recipient. When the coach said, “I’m not sure precocious is the right word to describe this little guy, but he always had the most unique answers to any question I had…” I knew immediately he was talking about my Mikey.
I tried to get a sweet picture of the moment our son received his first trophy, but both my cheap camera and my willful child were not cooperating.
OK, Mikey, smile!
Mikey, open your eyes. One more time, smile!
Mikey, you’re killing me. Seriously, look in the camera, forget about the candy in the bag, and SMILE!
Note: His hand is now deeper inside the bag. I give up. You get the idea–happy moment, so excited, trophy!
p.s. Do my children need a haircut, or what? They look like characters from a Charles Dickens novel.
You can’t beat that kid’s smile. I am glad he had fun. Seriously, so cute.
It’s official: your boys are absolute heartbreakers. Future David Beckham right there with his hand in the candy bag.
LOL…I love it! All the imperfections and silly smiles, etc! It’s life with kids and it’s great, ain’t it?? :)
Jules you have beautiful beautiful boys!! Congrats to Mikey!!!
Thank you, everyone. That was nice to wake up to. And Petunia, I think there’s a euphemism in there somewhere. :)
You have the cutest boys! We need the red Converse. Seriously.
You have some real cuties on your hands.
“Please sir, may I have another?”
So cute!
