We have been inducted into the world of soccer moms and Saturday game days.
Kyle had his first soccer game on Saturday and it was awesome. This is the youngest league - 4 and 5 year olds. We have 6 boys, 2 girls, and 1 coach Alicia on the team. Ky didn't know any of the other kids on the first day but they have all become "dog pile" buddies. They love to just yell "DOG PILE!" and all fall on eachother. Even little Cora says "dog pile me guys!". Yikes.
There are no goalies and no score keeping. The coaches act as referees. It was a huge deal when Kyle scored 3 goals for his own team, and everyone clapped politely when he scored a goal for the other team. When you look at the pictures I attach, check out the smile on Kyle's face (when he is smiling) - he looks absolutely thrilled. I love when I am able to capture that look on film. Really, how often do we find outselves smiling with that much joy?
So far the most tense moment came when Coach Alicia asked the team what they should name themselves . . . CHEETOS! . . . DORRITOS! . . . SPICY CHEETO-DORRITOS! . . . ugh. I was so relieved when they agreed upon Vipers. Please, no junk food references, it will give me hives.
