How to take off shoes like my 4-year-old:
— James Breakwell (@XplodingUnicorn) February 2, 2017
1) Remove shoe
2) Place it on shoe tray
3) Remove other shoe
4) Toss it into another dimension
Some lines you cross and you live with the consequences forever. Like potty-training kids, then suffering their poop schedules for eternity.

After practice, my son sprinkles tiny rubber pellets from the indoor turf with every step, like some sort of evil soccer fairy.
