CONGRATULATIONS AIDAN WEIR!


There's my 18-year-old son with his favorite coach.

Tonight, we learned that he has been named as one of the top 11 soccer players in the in the city of San Francisco. This is an incredible honor, though one he dismisses with his typical combination of modesty and naivete ("I figured I would win it, Dad. Can we not brag about it?")

My next task is to figure out whether and how to use this news to help him get into college. Unfortunately, we had just sent off his applications to all the California schools a few hours before this news came in.

He also got his first acceptance -- from the University of Montana. It's an exciting time for this high school senior.
