While catching up on my blog reading, I came across this video from Design Mom. I loved the simplicity and sincerity of the story. Brent is an all-round sports fan but he has a special place in his heart for soccer. He really enjoyed playing as a kid and definitely wants our girls to have the same opportunity (I'm more partial to baseball). I kept the page up and made a mental note to show the video to Brent when we had a quiet moment that evening. That moment came just before we went to bed. I handed Brent the laptop and headed to the bathroom to brush my teeth and slather on some lotion.
I think Brent was secretly annoyed with me. He was already in bed, on the verge of getting some much-needed rest. But when I glanced over at him, the light from the laptop was splashed across his face. He was smiling slightly, with bright eyes. I could almost see the images of him as a little soccer player running through his head. He looked oh so angelic with his pale skin and blond hair. Needless to say, he loved the video too and let me know he appreciated me showing it to him.
Now watching this video makes me happy for a whole new reason!
