Soccer Games

Even though I have decided to take the year off from teaching (I am only coaching 1 hour of cheer a week, even though I have subbed many times this year in the classroom and gym already... no complaints! I LOVE teaching and coaching, I just wanted a year off from total commitment ya know!?!?!) I feel as though we are just as busy busy! Taking Beck to and from school takes up a BUNCH of time... insert "Welcome to my life as a taxi driver" comments here... And one reason why we have been super on the go is Soccer. (feel free to insert; "I told you so" and "oh yeah, we have dance, soccer, baseball, football, track, AND the FFA club" comments here, I may not read them though ;)
All that aside; Meet my son the HAM!!Seriously... his ENTIRE first game was spent purposely falling on the ground to get a rise out of coaches and giggles out of fellow team mates... Silly kid. Good thing I am not too fond of soccer anyway right? ;) Here is the one time he actually did kick the ball. Proud mommy moment, crappy picture, gosh darn it...

Game #2 went much better. Too bad Stephen was out of town and he missed it. But Beck kept more with his team and his coach made him a deal to "see how long you can stand up" type of thing. Not fool proof, but it worked a bit. His coaches are incredibly patient and good people. Poor things had no idea what they were getting into I'm afraid. Having watched on the sidelines, I think that it is safe to say that I may never coach little tot soccer. And actually I'm not qualified to teach anyone older either, so I'm good... :)
