Thanks to Dad- Post 3

Today I am thankful for my dad for attempting to teach me to play soccer.  He loves the sport so much and I am sure he was thrilled the day I said I wanted to play.  He coached my team and spent who knows how much time in the backyard trying to teach me to head soccer balls.  Sadly, my soccer career was short-lived because much to Dad's chagrin, I was much more interested in turning cartwheels and doing handsprings on the soccer field than actually playing soccer.  Thanks for trying though, Dad.  In the end, I married an excellent soccer player who you coached as well, so that has to count for something.
