We finally took that trip to Paris that we originally planned back in 2020, we added a couple of destinations we went to Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam. Sawyer liked all three countries but Paris was his favorite, he liked the shopping and we went to the PSG stadium where his favorite soccer player, Messi plays. Messi signed with InterMiami in the MLS, we surprised him with a trip to Nashville to watch them win. We went to a Diamondback World Series game too, but sadly they lost. He continues to be a great student, and got straight A’s again. He still loves playing videogames, and has won competitive tournaments online. . He continues to love playing soccer and flag football. We travel often on weekends around his sports schedule. His team won the State Cup and we travelled to Colorado for the regionals, they didn’t win, but played great.

What a strange year. We were planning a trip to Paris when talk about COVID first started. By March, Sawyer was doing online school and we were trying to provide tech support so he could do online school. He is still a straight A student, but it was an odd year. He has gotten really good at a video game called Fortnite and he plays alot. He continues to love playing soccer, he is the smallest kid on the team, but most aggressive, the other parents call him the honey badger, he wants to try flag football as well. Our vacation wound up being to Roswell, New Mexico which is not exactly Paris, but still fun.
