Soccer season begins!!

Well, it is that time of year. Time to get out the soccer cleats, shin guards, and soccer ball to begin fall soccer. S played last year and did great. This year she wanted to play again so we were happy to sign her up. LT did not want to yet. I don't want to push him too much but I think I may make him next spring. :) S is playing with the 6 and 7 year olds this year. They are a little more serious about the game since they will actually keep score. Her coach is Tommy whom we found out is the son of one of our older ladies at church....small world.

Coach Tommy is all about soccer and will teach S ALOT this season. She was a little sad and crying after the 1st day of practice. She said Coach Tommy was too hard and made her work too much. GOOD!!! LOL! She will learn to stick with something even when it is hard and that working hard will pay off. Aren't you glad for those people in your child's life that help teach them character?? I am! It may be hard to watch at first but I am sure that she will be a better person because of it. Here are some pics of her 1st practice.......O and LT came to watch.

Cute soccer girl with her coach.

Listening and learning

Getting to know each other.

Practicing hard. It will pay off!!!!:)
