Michael subbed in as coach for Graham's team one week. Graham and Sis thought they were big time with their Daddy out there. Notice Miss
Priss to the left. It was hard keeping her off the field this particular day.
We didn't exactly get dressed up for game day.
To think we almost didn't sign this little boy up for soccer because he is only 4 years old. I was nervous that Graham was too little to understand rules and want to follow a coach's direction but I was wrong. He is serious out on this field. There is no horseplay and rarely any silliness out of this kiddo when he hits the field. I have been shocked at his attention span and drive to play a team sport. I hope this continues on.
This was a practice shot but when Graham makes a goal during a game, he immediately turns around to find us on the sidelines and we give each other double thumbs up. It is so sweet. Michael and I are also working on humility at the same time remembering he is 4 and celebrating with him.
Gigi,
Pawpaw and
KK have thankfully all been able to come up for a game.
Notice how Charles (on the right) is trying to explain something to Graham but he seems to not be paying him any attention. This is what I'm talking about with his focus. We have cracked up. They were both taking an unwanted rest.
Post game snack time.
Graham took a spill or two the first game and came out crying mostly due to being so embarrassed. He soon realized that he couldn't just run back in until the coach subbed him in. This did sit well and I don't think he has come out of the game crying since.
The Pro. I mean, does he look like a serious teenager or what?
