Eat Dirt

I always thought that when you told someone to "eat dirt" it meant like "go jump in a lake" or "leave me alone" or something like that. At soccer practice on Tuesday, Reese took "eat dirt" to a literal sense. He was going in for a goal, and ended up falling right over the ball, landing face down in the dirt. He had dirt all over his face, in his mouth...we even found some up his nose during his bath.

Besides eating dirt...he also skinned his knee. Not bad for a day's work! I do have to say, he's tougher than me. He only cried for a minute, then enjoyed getting to spit all the dirt out! Definitely a boy thing!
