Holy Cow! I'm a Soccer Mom!

My little boy had his first soccer practice last night. He barely made the age cut (in fact, he didn't since his birthday is after Sept. 1), but they let him play anyway. I just want him to get used to some type of physical activity, learn an organized sport and have FUN. He did very well!

They all got out there with their own balls and kicked and ran. Nine children on the team. He listened to Coach Joe, and you could tell he was even trying to copy him. Too cute! But then the poor coach decided it was time for a mock game. One ball instead of nine. What a disaster! The parents stood at the goal where their child should kick to. Most children just looked around in amazement, including mine. One little boy, James, went crazy. He scored all of the goals. His parents are from South America - soccer is in his blood. He's going to be our ringer, if he can figure out which way our goal is located.:) Either the children didn't want to fight over the ball or they didn't want to share. Anyway, it will be fun. Three year old soccer can be nothing but fun. More pics will follow I'm sure. His first game is this Saturday.
