My son and husband are both huge fans. Yesterday, both kids and adults had their faces painted with national flags and wore their fan jerseys everywhere.

We live very near Frankfurt, where as I type this, England and Paraguay are playing just a few kilometers away. All of us are thinking of going downtown to see the crowds gathered down by the River Main. I actually feel more at home here in Germany than ever before. Everyone is going out of their way to welcome the tourists. The radio is even doing an additional traffic report in English.

Normally, there would be no question about going out and jumping in. We are an adventurous family. But, for an event on this scale, I am a bit nervous about taking the baby out in the thick of it. Then again, I don’t want to stay home with the baby while father and son get to have all the fun.

What would you do if you had a baby and the World Cup on your doorstep?
