CAREFREE TIMELESSNESS...

Friday, January 21, 2011

Soccer Fun

We are a soccer family.  My kids don't even want to try another sport.  They love it.  We brought some soccer balls donated by SOCCER ETC. (thank you!) and the kids have loved playing it here with the children.  It is the first thing the orphan boys want to do when we show up.  The first time they played my boys were the only ones with tennis shoes on, let alone shoes at all.  They were playing on a dirt road with a ton of rocks-not little rocks, but sharp rocks.  The orphans paid no attention to them.  It was very apparent that more than not, they do not wear shoes.  They had a complete blast and it is a memory my kids will never forget. No goals, no uniforms, no referees-just some carefree timelessness.








 The next day, I thought it was so great that my kids weren't wearing any shoes either...
