Football hits the Ralph Home

Ethan has been wanting to play football for several years now but I have been resisting. At the neighborhood party Dennis and I were talking to the dad of one of Ethan's friends who told us that his son's team sure could use a few bigger boys. Dennis asked if it would be too late for Ethan to join them and the man didn't think it would so . . .here he is in uniform. He's had a couple of practices and loves it but says he needs to be more aggressive (he's worried he might hurt someone). We're still waiting to see if the league will let him play in the games since he joined the team after they already played three games. It will be good experience for next year at least and he is really enjoying it. He even said he is not going to eat sweets while playing sports (he has a friend at school who does this). Anyway, I just hope he stays safe and healthy!

Man he looks so old! Where is the little boy who would sing MY Girl. As Morgan turns seventeen tomorrow I just want to freeze time. I cannot bear the thought of them growing up. He does look good though!!

Ethan and Tanner will have to get together and talk football! Glad he's having fun.
