Soccer and Football


On Saturday's, the kids participate in the YMCA soccer and football league. Today just happened to be picture day! By the way, Hamartrya and I are the coaches for Bella's team! I am proud to say, we have absolutely no experience in that sport. However, we enjoy the kids we coach and the kids enjoy us so much that they don't notice we "suck" (I'm sure the parents do). Just goes to prove that taking the time to volunteer in a child's life, no matter what you are doing or how good or bad you are at it, really makes a difference to the child. On another note, this is Trey's 1st year at football, and while he feels completely lost on how the game is played, he enjoys the social aspect of the game and of course the real reason for signing up - the snack at the end!! He caught his first pass today and then just stood there, so the coach yelled "RUN BIG TREY" and Trey did, scored a touchdown and was so proud of himself. So after a long day on the field, they are now both sick (stomach flu going around) so hopefully this will pass quickly.
