Not so little anymore

Last Friday morning I got a text from my friend Judon, mom of Little P. She told me he had a city league football game the next afternoon and would love it if I could make it out to see him play. I don't know (or care) anything about football, but I love Judon and P., so I went. 

It was a crisp, beautiful fall day, and I got to see this young man and his team win the game!


Look how much he's grown! I guess I should stop calling him "little". The three of us went to lunch afterwards, and as we were leaving the restaurant, I was shocked to realize he's as tall as I am now. He'll be 13 in March. Unbelievable.


Still good friends all these years later!

He's doing his Mum (and his friend Jennifer) proud!! As you say, not so little anymore, and his team won the game - what's not to love, even if you (like me) don't actually care about football :-D

I'm very proud of him. He's such a good, well-mannered boy. His mama is doing a good job.
