Today's story features Demetrius and soccer camp. He was excited to go but very apprehensive once he got there. And subsequently started crying when it was time to take the field. He was immobile, hiding behind his hands, for a short while and then he got into the swing of things and started having fun. They took a water break and the same thing happened when they had to go back - twice. He rode with me on the way home and I said to him, "Demetrius, it looked like you were crying out there? Was everything OK? Or did you get hurt or something?" "No, Grandma. It's just that my eyes kept getting water in them. I didn't want anybody to see them so I put my hands over them. Then the water dried up and it was OK. I could see again." As smart as he is, I don't think he really associated the water getting in his eyes with crying. Or maybe he's so smart that that was his cover story!
