We moved back to the Seattle area so we can be with the grandkids and family,?

And here we were in Ballard this morning watching our four year old, his (#5) first soccer game.

We got there right at kick off and their team (The Whales) immediately gave up a goal by kicking the ball in the wrong goal.

Number five ran over to us after asking when we got here, and without waiting for an answer,, declared, “Looks like we are losing”

Near the end of the half ‘#3’ on his team sent a shot past the goal and followed his shot for about another quarter of a mile. He dribbled the ball, without anybody marking him, out of eyesight. We have no idea where he was headed, or where he would’ve ended up, if not flagged down by the coach on the other team.

I would love to hear you opinion as well

His friends observe Mark seems wired a little differently. Perhaps it’s more likely that noticing little things often missed by others is a relic of a quieter, simpler time. He has a way with words, which he refuses to let be hindered by sub-par typing skills. People have great stories to tell if you sit and listen.

A belief dear to Mark is that there is certain beauty in the world. You simply have to look for it.
