I hate to brag, but I'm quite good at football. So good in fact, that when I see someone with a football, I have to have it. Immediately. Or I cry.
So, don't be alarmed if you drive by my house and see me outside throwing and hiking the ole' pigskin around. It's what I do best lately...
I guess what I'm trying to say is...
Anyone out there want to play? Of course you do :)

Owen K.
Ooooh man. You are definitely ready for the NFL. You're very dedicated to be training already. In that first picture, you totally have the hiking system down pat.
Can you teach me how to catch? I tend to be scared of the ball. Maybe you can show me the way??

Zia:
A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How the football used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make that pigskin dance
And, maybe, I’d be happy for a while.
But Hail Mary's made me shiver
With every throw that I’d deliver.
But "O" throws good, no mis-steps;
From months and months of my prep...
Need I say more, Zia?

AuntieLeeLeeashieGodmother:
I would love to teach you how to throw and catch the pigskin. However, I have to warn you: those little footballs hurt if they hit you in the mouth. Ouch.
Howie runs for cover when I start playing football. He's a chicken.

Dear Owen,
Those are really cute pictures of you! I bet you can't wait until you're big enough to play in the Pee-Wee leagues! :)
Love,
