#2 scores 2

Sporting a #2 jersey (Uncle Ryan's Number) - Jack's first soccer game was a complete and total success.  I had to miss his game because Sam had a game at the exact same time (Sam had an awesome day too - scoring 3 goals!)  I have to admit that I was a little nervous about how soccer would go for Jack.  He doesn't have much endurance, and absolutely no coordination, but the odds were with him today.  Don't get me wrong he fell, several times - but this is to be expected but he also scored 2 goals!!!  What a great job.  Shawn said he was really aggressive and I'm so excited that he was able to feel the joy of success.  The following sequence of pictures is of him scoring his 2nd goal.  PURE JOY - in captured in a picture, there is just no other words to describe it!  Days like these are so rewarding, and I wouldn't trade a life time of worldly riches and success for these precious moments.

 Now you might ask, how was this done?  Well he had a little help from his own private instructor: Sam K. Summers.  Sam had Jack outside Thursday showing him the basics.
