Son of Spaz

I have many talents. Athleticism, unfortunately, is not one of them. However, as the mom of two potential jocks-to-be, I try my best to be sports friendly, and I just hope that my boys will overcome my severe sports deficiencies.

The other day I thought I was doing a great job of working with Cole on the football pass. We were throwing the ball back-and-forth and I kept coaching him to "keep your eye on the ball." Well, be careful what you tell a two-year-old...

Next thing I know Cole catches the ball and proudly exclaims, "Mama, I'm keeping my football on my eye!" Then he puts the football LITERALLY right on his eye like an eye-patch or a telescope, and he flashes me his proudest smile before he tosses it back to me, like that's how the game is supposed to be played.

Yup, that's definitely MY son.
