Trying something new makes Dylan feel very much outside his comfort zone, as it does for so many people. Dylan loves being where he knows (aka home), doing what he knows and with a predictable schedule for his day, therefore, trying out for football took great courage for him. We strongly encourage all our kids to try something new as we feel it helps them get to know more about who they are, what they like and dislike, and it helps to cultivate confidence in themselves as they overcome their fears and learn new skills. We are so proud of him for taking this huge leap and so excited to see the joy in his eyes as he is on the field learning and playing. Dylan has now fallen in love with football and wants to spend every moment outside practicing and learning. Nate and I are so happy that Dylan tried something new and found a new interest that brings him so much joy and I have to add that, as parents, watching him play is absolutely exhilarating! There is no greater thrill than watching your child succeed at their passions.
