John had his first soccer practice of the season yesterday and scored two goals! And what a year for the Special Olympics. John is playing basketball on Thursday nights and running track on Tuesdays. Big shout out to John’s brother Jamie, who is not only the Lord of the Socks at John‘s Crazy Socks.
