Today I signed Preston up for football. Preston and I both went into town hall to get him signed up and the gentleman asked for our info so he could look it up on the computer ( If you have played any sport in Canal Winchester you are already in the computer system ). The gentleman had a puzzled look and said that Prestons b-day wasnt in the system. I informed him that when we did tball this summer that Preston was part of the age exception to the rule and that it wouldnt allow me to enter his date because I had to show his birth certificate at tball signups. The gentleman said to me "Oh well this is no problem cause our football cut off is June 1st and clearly he missed the cutoff since he is 6". Ummm Preston just turned 5 on June 8th was my response and the guy said "No way". I asked if it was parent or coach discretion for Preston to play since he missed the cutoff by 8 days and he said both. I informed him I was ok for him to play and he stood up from behind the desk and said "Oh yeah me too he can certainly play".
I guess Preston is playing football now......I will say this once and only for my husband and then these words will never ever come out of my mouth again for as long as I live....but maybe someday Preston will play football for the Buckeyes! Now I must go wash my mouth out with soap.
