Life is Hard

Nigel’s run-on sentence of the day:

“Mom, I was playing soccer today and someone came up and kicked me in the chest right here (pointing to his chest) and I didn’t cry and I kept on running because I learned that life is hard but you have to keep on going because that’s what a Smith would do!”

It’s days like today that make me feel like all this parenting stuff might actually be working :)
