Tonight was my son's end of season soccer party, held at the home of one of the parents. Plus, for once, hardly half a mile from me. Usually it's several miles. The kids had a great time playing and horsing around while the parents yakked in another room. One of the coaches put together a DVD montage-slide-show thing of his still photos from some of the games (He's a *really* good photographer). There were some great action shots.

As we were watching it I thought, you know, being a parent is really the greatest thing ever. It just is. Tonight, I had a moment of really pure happiness. I'm so very grateful.
