Soccer Goals

6 for Nathan, 2 for Noelle... but there's more to the story.

Nathan is the kind of kid that loves to "get it".  He asks lots of questions trying to understand exactly what has happened, or what is happening, or what is going to happen, or how something happened.  It's great to see his little mind at work.  And that's how he approaches soccer.  What am I supposed to do?  How am I supposed to do it?  Get the ball, get it in the other team's goal.  Score!  Again and again and again...

Noelle is the kind of kid that "loves it".  She loves to be on the field, loves to have her soccer uniform on, loves to watch the other kids running around on the field, and loves the snack at the end of the game.  It's great to see her enjoy life.  And that's how she approaches soccer.  Oh, wow, look at that airplane flying overhead!  Oh, hey, there goes the ball out of bounds... I'd love to get a goal...I pick it up... take off running... to the other team's goal... and throw it in.  Get a yellow card.  Oops!

And it's good for the parents of Nathan and Noelle to have the opportunity to love each one for who they are, each precious.
