A Rainy Day Away From Playing...

We glanced at the weather for the rest of the week on into Saturday. And you know what, friends? The weather will be alright this week. Cloudy, but alright. Then comes Saturday and guess what? More rain. Unbelievable. We are three weeks into a soccer season that hasn't seen one game yet. These girls will be couch potatoes by the time they actually hit the field.

Just kidding. How could that be with The Hub / Coach Reggie on the scene? Last practice, he broke out his whistle for those ladies. His real, authentic, genuine whistle. (thank you brother-in-law!) We're all geared up, we just need a clear day and a dry field to play on.

A Youngest moment for you to simmer on this happy Tuesday...We're riding in the car yesterday playing the ever-so-silly game of "how do you spell that?" This wouldn't be what you guess. It's more of a slang/ebonics/ridiculous sounding game. One of us catches the other saying something that is impossible to be spelled and tries to spell it. For example, I told the Hub that one day he was going to buy a new car for me. Only it came out like this: "One day, you're gonna buy a new cah fuh-mee". Soccer Chick caught it and asked everyone how "fuh-mee" is spelled. We had a little bit of joy-time throwing out other words, such as "tiyed" for tired. Youngest pipes up "I got one! I got one!"

"How do you spell poop? P-O-O-P." Hooray, Youngest. You spelled it right. We laughed so hard. Which should we be more proud of? The fact that this is the first word he spelled correctly outside of his first name or that this was the word he chose? Hmm...
