Priorities

from the mom

Ask Ben what his name is and he'll walk away, stare at you stonily or otherwise ignore what he must consider a stupid question. But at the dinner table tonight it was: "Field goal."

"Huh?" I asked, certain I had misunderstood. "Did you say 'field goal'"?

"Football," he replied, as if to explain that a field goal was essential to the game of football.

Uncle Mark should be proud.

Uncle Mark is proud. Just remember to keep your shoulders square, your eyes open, and explode through the tackle, Ben!
