Football with the Holly's

He came dressed in uniform...

And waited anxiously to play...

He watched the coach as he orchestrated game winning plays...

He dreamed of playing as good as #52...

He became discouraged as his time never came...

But took a knee at the end of the game to hear what the coach had to say...

And knew his chance would come soon.

(Canyon was thrilled to come watch Matthew play and Mark coach. It has been a pleasure for our family to watch Mark coach and Jesse & Matt play football. Skye & Mark give their life to their boys and their interests and our boys can see that. Canyon & Trek love their Auntie & Uncle--Trek was devastated that Mark wasn't paying attention to him during the game & was so happy when Mark came to get him as soon as he could. And Canyon was not as dramatically disappointed as my story tells because he got love and attention he wanted from his Auntie & Uncle. Thank-you Holly family for being as wonderful & sweet & loving as you are. The Kirkman's love you so much!)
