Soccer Ian

I'm not sure I'm cut out to be a soccer mom. So far we've had 2 games & I've had a hard time watching both of them. Ian had fun his first game. Here he is before the game:



and, of course Leah had to have her picture taken too:


These beautiful sunny pictures are from Ian's first soccer game. It was a glorious day & Ian's team wound up winning 6 - 2. Ian had more fun pushing around the other kids than actually kicking the ball, but it is pewee soccer. His # is 11.


This foggy, kind of hazy picture is from today. Ian still had more fun pushing around the other kids until the coach told him to not push his own players also...sigh,
so Ian wound up in a bad mood & didn't want to play in the game anymore. Hopefully next week will go better. His team won 2 - 0 this week.


At the end of the games, they were taught to go & tell the other team "good game".



So, we'll see what this week brings. We have 8 more games still to play! Hopefully I'll survive the season. I'm sure Ian will. His skills get better with each practice, so maybe one of these weeks he'll actually focus for the game & enjoy chasing the ball a bit.
