April 19

Coaching youth soccer teams is another one of those jobs where I'm in awe of the people who can fill them. And Luke's soccer coach, Taylor, is no exception. Luke was terribly disappointed in himself after his team lost their game tonight. It didn't matter that his mom and dad thought he did terrific or how much the team had improved since they first started, he was only aware of the final score.

But when Coach Taylor dropped by our house after the game to personally congratulate Luke on some great defensive moves he made during the game, his mood visibly lifted.

I'm grateful tonight for Taylor's time and his ability to get Luke to really listen and work. Thank you, Taylor!
