Soccer

I have such mixed feelings about this. Sweet Daughter wanted to do more sports this Summer, so we are trying ankle biter soccer (3-4 year olds) and tennis (3-5 year olds). So far we have had one soccer practice. On one hand it seems completely ridiculous to even attempt organized sports at this age. On the other hand, we are so far behind. Most of the kids in our league have already been playing for 2 years (yes, they are 3 years old). Apparently there is a league for 1-2 year olds that they all started in. Seriously? UGH

Sweet Daughter loves it. There are people. She gets to run and kick. People cheer her on. What's not to love? Sweet Son hates it. There are people. He's supposed to run and kick. People cheer him on. The whistle is too loud, the benches are too bright (reflecting the sun), and on and on. We will finish out the 6 weeks and go from there.
