Time Passes, Children Grow Older, I'm Getting Older, Too



From standing in a muddy hole under a crooked goal with a jersey sizes too big to breathtaking saves for a professional team wearing the best gear available, my son has grown up.

What I wouldn't give to go back, just for a little while, to the time I wrapped him in a warmed towel after a hot bath to remove the mud, and read him to sleep.

As the song goes:

Well, I've been afraid of changing
Cause I've built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older, too...
