This week we had two snow days. It was aggravating when dad went to work and there was no school. But outside there was ice. It wasn't nice because people get sick, people have to take care of the sick people and not leave their sight, those people get sick too, those people get angry and the previous people who were already get angry too. And sicknesses only get worse. Tomorrow is already scheduled a two hour delay. That's okay, but how could it have been worse. question mark ommitted.
Living thousands of miles from my grandson, it is a grand honor to participate in some of his activities. So when the opportunity arose to attend one of his soccer games, we were delighted to accept the invitation. Although his team did not win, the game was not about winning but was about rewarding every member with the same rewards: a large conspicuous badge and a sumptuous frozen treat and a photo op of the team and coach. Although he did not score and at times seemed not to know what was going on, we enjoyed watching him grace the soccer field with his running around the whole field. He seemed to be saying to us to watch him, which we did with pleasure. I am proud of my grandson for trying. One day, I believe, he will be a great soccer player. But for now, he is still my favorite soccer player in America. And that's what counts. Go, Blake!
