Soccer

Early on, we kind of assumed that T would follow his brother into t-ball and baseball. But we realized several months ago that while T would probably enjoy baseball, what he loves to do most is run. And since there's a lot more running in soccer than in baseball, we signed him up for soccer instead!

Soccer played by small children who have no clue about the actual game is so very amusing. What is not amusing is playing against a team that pretty clearly has a six or seven-year-old kid. Umm, yeah, that kid was a giant in the midst of the pre-kindergarten boys. And he clearly had a lot more knowledge about the game than the other kids.

T's having a great time. He still kind of just runs near the ball, but he's starting to figure things out. And he's had some awesome saves as goalie. Go T!

I think soccer played by small children who have no clue is not amusing as much as FRUSTRATING!! I'm excited for T though.

I remember well how fast a runner his Dad was. For a brief stint I got to be a "soccer mom" with him until baseball won out.

Here in Milan we live close to the big soccer stadium. It's fun to hear how passionate the Italians are about their soccer teams.

Go T Go!
