David playing his last soccer game of the season! He got a goal too! Photo taken by me :)
Our son & his trophy!
Right after he received his trophy, an older gentleman approached David and told him how impressed he was at his soccer skills all season.  He shared with David that he really has a gift. For us as his parents that was worth far more than his trophy. Thank you gentleman wherever you are!

Our dear neighbors once upon a time...Steve & Jenn. We are praying for you Steve!
