Recently, my 15 year old made the cut as a keeper for the high school soccer team!

We went to the kick-off banquet two nights ago. A good time was had by all as they introduced the players, asked the parents to volunteer, etc, etc.

As everyone is leaving, I slipped him the keys for the second time (see other time above) and said "You drive".

He said, "Where's Hellga" (that's our Suburban)
"I brought Olivia tonight"
"Really, sweet!"

As he gets in the car, he lingers and yells goodnight to lots of folks to make sure all his friends (and probably more importantly members of the girl's soccer team) see him get in the car on the driver's side.

The road leading out of the high school has some decent curves in it, I tell him to speed up, he does, and later I have to tell him to slow down!

Once again, as we get out of the car, he says, "Man, I love that car!" I, of course, agree.

He told me last night lots of folks asked him about it, including a couple of members of the girl's team.

I think my work here is done...
