A New Week

We had a really great weekend. I guess you could say mine started on Thursday, so I had a GREAT weekend. Saturday was Jack's first soccer game in his whole life. We go there a bit late because Maria had the wrong directions. Clint took Slade to his game so I caught a ride with Maria. I did my best to not get so into the game or else I would have been running up and down the sidelines with them. I sat next to Margaret and we both had a knitting project going on and that is what kept me in check! Jack did well. I feel for him. It's like I'm him in these situations. He's still timid when it comes to getting the ball away from the other team. He is waiting for it to stop so that he can turn it around and kick it in the right direction. He will learn how to get in there and guide the ball. He needs a haircut too. Both these boys got really bad haircuts and now that their has grown out it doesn't look good at all. We are trying to talk Slade into cutting his hair short. I personally think he looks better with it long because of the way it curls. Jack is so meticulous that I'm afraid for him to get any hair cut off - it will throw him for a loop. We are easing him into a haircut this week.

I finally finished my sweater and bootie project. I'm pretty happy with the booties. It took me 7 attempts to finally have a pair. I need total concentration when I work on them. I hear I will need to be the same when I work on the heel flap of a sock. So, it's all just practice for the socks. Anyway, these things are for Madison Sage. I hope they fit and she can wear them.

That's it for now. need to see what these little ones are up to.
