It's Official.

I've entered the realm of Soccer Mom-dom.

Chris is the coach.
 

The "Panthers" are a fierce bunch, I tell you.

A force to be reckoned with on the field.  

A swarm of cuteness surrounding the ball.


And yet, while everyone else sees this,

 I'm still seeing this

and this

and this.

And though I shake my head in utter disbelief at the swift passage of time, it insensitively marches right on by, unconcerned that in a mere matter of years there will be cars.  And college.  And girls.

Matthew doesn't understand why he can't play "soccer ball" with his brother. 

Timothy has a blast on the field.  Look at that smile!

He gets a little distracted.  By everything.  At one point we found him on the sideline of the adjacent field, cheering on another team. 
But at this point, it's 100% fun. 
 And I will give a giant noogie to the first person who tries to make it 
anything else for these sweet babies.

Look at these cute little guys!  Their enthusiasm 
(for sports, for each other, for snacks) is contagious.

Life is sweet, y'all.  Life is sweet.

Love, love it! Welcome to Club Soccer Mom! Warning: You may become more and more of a soccer fanatic if your kids continue to love it (even to the point of getting soccer channels during the season so your kids can watch the pros like the coaches from the U.K. in their soccer camps .......) Enjoy, it is so much fun!, (And C spent the first two years chasing butterflies more than the ball and picking flowers more than paying attention to the game!)
