On Becoming a "Soccer Mom"...

Last night was our very first soccer practice.

It was very cold, but otherwise fun.  I think we have a future soccer star on our hands, of coarse!  The 4 year olds play without a goalie, and they don't have positions.  The coach explained it as- the ball is a magnet and all the children are made of metal.  Made sense to me.  So the goals of the season are to teach the kids:

1-not to use their hands, just their feet

2-go the right direction on the field (i.e. score in the correct goal)

3-pass the ball and score

Seems like it will be a lot of fun!
