Grant played indoor soccer again this year with some friends, and we had a great time, even though I think we only won twice. Funny story. When I was growing up, I responded very well in sports to "incentives" from my parents. Grant seemed to have checked out a little bit, so I thought I'd try this approach with him too. We were supposed to go to Chuck E. Cheese after this last game, so I told him if he scored some goals, he would get extra tokens. And the kid scored 7 or 8 goals!! Guess it worked. Too bad we didn't actually go to Chuck E. Cheese. It was packed out and had a line just to get in, so we jetted over to Burger King Playland instead, but I'm sure that we will have to take him to Chuck E. Cheeses soon!
