The boys have been playing soccer every Tuesday. A friend came up with the idea to get all our kids together to play soccer for fun. It was a great test run for us to see how Trey would do with other kids and whether or not he would participate before we sign him up for a league. The first time we went to play he did not run out there like he had stated he would. He told me all about how many goals he would score and how fast he would be. Then we went and he stood next to me and watched the entire time. He claimed he needed to see how fast the other kids were before he could play. O.K. The next time we showed up he played for the last half. He was extremely frustrated that some of the kids were faster than him. A number of them are older but that was unacceptable to him. So we practiced at home running, dribbling, and scoring (passing is not something he is fond of). When we went again he played the whole time and loved it. He really enjoys soccer and tells everyone that he scores lots of goals and is the fastest (not really). The only thing that disappoints him now is that nobody wins in the end and he doesn't get a trophy like Chick Hicks from Lighting McQueen:) Again it is so fun to see him get out there and really enjoy himself and the other kids playing soccer. Taatjes gets in on the action every now and then.
