Proud Soccer Mom

My boys are athletes. They do well in sports and I really enjoy watching them play. I can't help but be proud when they do so well in their games. But my proudest moment of this past soccer season was when Jordan stopped in the middle of the game to help a boy put his shoe back on after it had fallen off. Now that is better than any soccer goal or good move on the field!
My boys break away from the crowd and run towards the goal!


They like scoring goals, but I think their favorite part is the snack after the game!

Is there such thing as a proud soccer aunt? If so, I am one!! That story of Jordan helping his friend put his shoe back on makes me think of that story of Joseph Smith helping the little kids who were stuck in the mud.
P.S. I can't believe how beautifully you captured that moment! Well done, yet again!

I don't know why my comment has not shown up yet... I commented on this yesterday. Anyhow, Audra, you should be so proud that you have taught your kids to help others. Seriously, this is such a tender picture! I absolutly love that he was not as much concerned with the game as he was for this little guy on his team. How sweet!! :) What great kids you have!! Love ya

Sorry, Shana! When you leave a comment, it emails it to me. Then I have to check my emails and publish the comment. So your comment didn't show up because I was slow getting to my emails. :)
