As I mentioned above....Wife did her DNA kit.
she knows her dads side, but never had anything to do with them, his choice. left her mom preggo at 17 yrs old.... Weve met him since, but he bailed on that too.... always wondered why his new wife looked at us like murderers. well.
Got the kit back...she had match pop up as a cousin. She assumed moms side.... BUT, it turns out its her "dad's" Aunt. had NO idea Nichole ever existed. bettin ole daddy never mentioned a word, and then when we did show up, probs told her a bunch of "shes here for my money" nonsense. hes an insurance salesman. please.... shes super nice, wondering how life has been... they hit it off online lol personally, I feel angry she got jipped out of caring family members.
We're goin' to meet this lady Sunday afternoon, should be nice for my wifey to make a connection to her childhood, and have it be a real..... also, Ill be 2.5 hrs closer to heffer, so theres that.
lol

gratz to your boy too! Super cool!
Im feeling like im becoming an old man lol.. i struggle any time a kid is treated badly. even if its simple...but if im involved, it bugs me
this kid is extreme, but is no way alone.
Another kid, my sons good friend, a good kid, and excellent player.. his dad showed up booze on his breath at 10:30 am. :/

this kid.... goin' back to the first post...
I was within seconds of telling the board to boot him out, because of what Hefe referred to and we discussed here... not letting the extra effort it will take bring the others down.
Im so very glad i didn't. thanks to you guys for lettin me vent a bit... spitball...
We're in the winter, so no real club team stuff to speak of.... just indoor 'Futsal' where my kids are broken into smaller teams and play with outside players. (Soccer played on basketball court, less players focusing on skill moves) this kid, though still a bit different... "goofy" in social situations.... shows up amped, ready to play. gives it his all. (even somewhat skilled) volunteers for goalkeeper... has mini-crashes where he gets really down on himself for making an error, like missing a pass or shot-because the rest of the kids are very skilled and hes embarrassed. but, he comes out of it now.... and has a good time, gets back into it.
His caregiver, he calls her "aunt", gushes over what Iv'e done for him... which isn't my aim, but it feels good to hear.
My club made us all choose player awards for a banquet we are having. Something I'm somewhat against at youth level at least honestly-theyre still developing... (I believe awards can make the high skilled complacent, and the less skilled can have their spirit broken so its a tight rope to have to walk) But, they get a tshirt and a little plaque....
Anyhoo, one of the awards I had to select, was "most improved" welp. Iv'e given it to the kid!
I have 15 other kids that maybe probably could be put in there.....so prob ruffle a couple soccer mom panties because theyre kid is "the best" but. shit the kid earned it. and it will help the most going forward. Im dramatizing here. My group of moms isnt too bad...theyre actually pretty level headed. I wont have that nonsense.
side note, one of the categories was "players' player" based on votes. which actually is important in my mind. muh pink haired boy won it.
