Soccer Retirement

D-man signed up for middle school intramural soccer this spring. It’s very casual, only for a couple of weeks, and culminates in a round robin tourney. In the last game of his career, he scored a goal in the upper right hand corner of the goal. (Unfortunately, neither Marshall nor I saw it). Of course, he walked home after the tourney, he crashed on the couch with a fever. 

So tonight we took him to the pediatrician because he had a bunch itchy spots. The doctor said he’s fighting a virus (and if he had to bet a dollar, he would say it was is chickenpox). Fun, huh? A memorable way to wrap up a soccer career.
