Is there anything funnier or cuter in the world than watching your kids play a sport that they don't know anything about and they're so little and cute? Preston and Emma started their soccer league last night. They are both on the team DC United, which sounds hilarious to me! We got there and the coach gave his awe inspiring speech, "My philosophy is to let the kids just play around at the begininng *which is "practice"* and let them just have fun, then we'll play our game." Ok, I get the fun part, but a little bit of skill should at least be taught, or at the very minimum to tell them which way to kick the ball in the game! lol. You could tell a couple of the kids watch soccer at home because they would kick it and then slide, so that they had to pick themselves off the floor EVERY TIME they kicked the ball. It was so funny. and then one kid, any time he got the ball, ran with the hugest grin on his face.
Emma got to play goalie a couple of times during the game and actually did a great job stopping the ball a few times. She almost scored a goal, but not quite. Her main goal during the game is to just kick the ball, no matter which way it goes. lol. That girl is ALL arms and legs. hee hee.
Preston kicked the ball maybe twice. He ran with his head down and eyes on his chest I think. lol. He had NO CLUE what was going on and this was basically what he did during the game.
