Yes, I am a Soccer Mom

I didn't plan on being a soccer Mom,

but that's what I have become.

Maureen did soccer for a few years.

She liked it, didn't Love it.

She did one season of travel and hung up her cleats.

I always thought Luke would be a baseball kid.

At 18 months old he would pick up empty 2 liter bottles and swing them at tennis balls.

He played Pee Wee, Prep and attended Baseball camps.

But last fall we saw a change.

Luke made a Travel Soccer Team.

He loved it!

He worked hard at it,

and was pretty good.

In October he was invited to go to a Red Sox game with his buddy.

Red Sox--his heroes.

His bedroom walls are covered in Red Sox posters.

" I can't go, " Luke said when he was told about the game.

" WHAT?!", I replied.

" I got a soccer game. My team is counting on me. I can't go, " he said.

It was at that moment I became a Soccer Mom!
