Last game

Well Christian’s surgery will happen on Thursday *deep breathe in and exhale*!

This past week, Christian had his last two soccer games of the season that he would be able to play in.    It was very nostalgic for me and for Rhino.  Monday’s game was played in 40 mph winds, low 50 degree temps and pouring down rain (gotta LOVE being a soccer mom!), Rhino only saw about 5 minutes of playing time that night {the coaches have been pretty caution with Christian’s ankle} and Wednesday’s game, well the wind was better, we had no rain but let’s just say the temperature around these parts is heading downward…UGH!  Christian got to see lots more playing time on Wednesday and played his little heart out BUT paid for it in the end with lots of pain! 

Let’s just say even though you’re really never prepared for surgery…..we’re ready for surgery at this point.

Thanks to all of our family that has come out to watch Rhino play this short season and to see him do his re-enactment too (yes, he is now done with that also because of the surgery and will miss a major event at the end of this month that he was desperately wanting to go to!).  I ask that you keep Christian in your thoughts and prayers over the next four months as he endures a new adventure in his life…..a new ankle, learning to walk again with rehabilitation, and the struggles of missing school during his sophomore year

Hopefully next soccer season he’ll be doing less of this…..
