The fragility of life......hug your kids (big and small)

...watched my twin giraffes this morning at their first junior high football practice. first ever in pads. They held their own (albeit confused/clumbsy). I was exhausted afterwards and so proud of them.

Reading this has moved me to tears on the heals of that.

Yeh there is no change my little boy is playing football, and I come from football stock.


ETA: My decision has nothing to do with this article

you can't really blame that story on playing football. The kid was sick with an inflamed spleen. He could have fallen or been horsing around and lacerated his spleen. It sucks, but to lump that in with "Football is a dangerous sport" is irresponsible.
