Soccer star

With the world cup fever gripping our country Joshua is seeing more football on TV now that he ever has before, although Andrew has always loved football...

Last night the Netherlands/Slovakia match was on, and when one of the goals was scored I got Josh to watch the replay and then suggested that we make a goal for him. So I got his little table and put a blanket over it, and then encouraged him to kick at goal. Well this was the result...

He has always been able to kick pretty straight - even across a 5 metre room and at a goal that is only half a metre wide! But if it doesn't go where you want it to... then just position it right and celebrate the victory! And just to note that I didn't show him how to celebrate, he did this all on his own ;o) This morning Andrew kicked the ball with him some more and showed him how to do a real victory lap, but this video was all natural Joshua!

And then here are some photos that my dad took a couple weeks ago. He was involved in some project where he needed to take photos at a specific time, and he chose to photograph his beautiful grandson...
