Those of you who know Briggs, know that exactly two things occupy his waking moments: fire trucks (and other emergency equipment) and balls. Any kind of balls. So when we learned that Black Mountain Recreation and Parks offered a soccer program for kids as young as three, it was a no-brainer for us to sign Briggs up. In the end he responded only so-so to the whole thing. If it were just a matter of running around kicking and throwing the ball, that would be fine. But three really is too young to try to do anything more than that. And for the older kids, the program needed them to do more. Briggs spent a lot of time on his own knocking the ball around. We had the last session today. Briggs was excited to get a medal (that flashes no less), but we think he was kind of relieved that the program was done.
