Super Bowl and Moms

Super Bowl! Do you ever wonder how those in the NFL spotlight started out? Did Eli Manning make his mom play catch in the backyard?

Anyway… some of the fun of having kids isn’t when we, as parents, teach them something, but when they teach us something.   Yesterday we went to the Colfax High School field and Jack decided to teach me a few of his plays.           

Who says you can’t teach an old mom new tricks!

Of course nexttime we go to the field I think I’ll wear some sweat-pants and cleats!
