I was thrilled before he tiptoed to see me in the audience. Dang, I was a grinning/squealing fool sitting on the edge of my seat.<br /><br />John' soccer cancelled due to low enrollment, so I'm going to try basketball. Songs will happen no matter the sport. Will is doing track and field special olympics but he won't let me sing to him, except for one song that I made up when I was pregnant with him and sang all the time.robgirlbookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398614063792587098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335622942047923783.post-74513560023049090452014-02-03T18:11:18.666-08:002014-02-03T18:11:18.666-08:00So sweet.

I know exactly what you mean about keeping moments like that forever. Can't wait to hear the songs you make up for him when he starts soccer! <3~Jennifer~https://www.blogger.com/profile/05952809868354553112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335622942047923783.post-67417482386398377022014-01-19T16:45:00.767-08:002014-01-19T16:45:00.767-08:00Thanks, Stephanie!

I went a while not taking pictures and I missed out preserving some prime time milestones.

Whether to try to take pics to capture the moment, or to just try to soak in the experience.<br /><br />Good luck being a soccer mom. :)<br /><br />Stephanie @ <a href="http://inspiringinsomnia.com" rel="nofollow">Inspiring Insomnia</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16532824873675624385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335622942047923783.post-46742257322728987832014-01-17T20:43:01.189-08:002014-01-17T20:43:01.189-08:00I wrote this TOL right after I put the boys to bed...I wrote this TOL right after I put the boys to bed I was so excited to share.

Our sons have been in the same autism program for years and I think we never saw this as an option, a choir concert with the rest of the school. I could barely sit in my seat. I was practically breathing down the neck of the guy in front of me. Just thinking about it has me about ready to clap and cheer.<br /><br />Happy reading, Lexxie! robgirlbookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03398614063792587098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2335622942047923783.post-60898973829413706452014-01-17T12:33:56.391-08:002014-01-17T12:33:56.391-08:00Wow Robyn!

Will stood in the bottom row front and center next to his friend who is not shy at all. The two have been in the same autism program for years and it was like they were supporting each other, the introvert and the extrovert. <br /><br />I can't wait for soccer too!
