Soccer mom

Life with boys includes soccer. Today it is practice for both Jared & Ryan at exactly the same time, but at two different parks. I'm feeling lucky though because both parks are in our city for a change. It has taken several weeks to finally get Ryan's practice moved back into Centerville. Ryan can walk or ride his bike to practice and then I can drive Jared to his practice. We'll do the games later in the week.
I have just been thinking lately how much I love having Jacob & Matthew at home during the day while the big kids are at school. Jacob, of course, has preschool 3 times a week, but these two are just so good-natured that it is just pleasant to be with them. I'm glad I have the opportunity to be home. Home is peaceful and organized till 3:30, then pandemonium breaks out with homework, snacks, friends, fits, teasing, and extracurricular activities jammed together. Gotta love it! Thank goodness the reading and piano practice get taken care of before school!
