Finding Grace in Odd Places
Last night we invited our Under-10 soccer team to practice on the indoor soccer field we built in our basement. When some of them didn't show up, Mario wanted to call them. I discouraged the idea, thinking it would be better to not bother people about their decisions. But it turned out that one player and his two brothers and their friend were free. They ended up coming over at 7:30 and staying until about 9 p.m. for an impromptu soccer and pingpong party. Gabriel was thrilled when he got home.
