Well, this year Colton decided that he would go out for Clovis Cowboys Football. He had never played football, only soccer, but he was up for the challenge. It was very tough practices. 5 days a week, in full Fresno July heat, 2 hours a day.
He had made the first cuts, and the final cuts were the following week. Unfortunately, while at practice, (and while mom was out of town) he fractured his arm. Dad thought it was fine, and sent him to practice the next Monday, but Tuesday afternoon, after I watched him at practice, he was at the doctor's office getting x-rays.
Sure enough, the rest of his summer, he would spend in a cast. So, that was the end of football, however the same night Colton found out his arm was broken, he was trying out for soccer. You can't keep that boy down!
Finally off!
