Player of the Day

Soccer season has started. S5 is in the 6th grade. How will he do?

Surprise #1 for Mummy: He was into it at the very first training. Was this the same boy who always hung back at Mainly Music, swimming, pre-school gymnastics, and generally any where that was his first time at?

Surprise #2: At the third training session, he refused to participate. 

Mummy had a very bad and over-reaction. Sigh.

Non surprisingly, he clung on to Daddy at his first game last Saturday.

Surprise #3: He coped so well, and was a different boy on the field today for his 2nd game. Getting there early to have a few kicks with Dad must have helped. 

Named Player of the Day for his team.

Here he is - beaming with pride :-)

 

I'm told their confidence and enthusiasm will change from week to week.

Nothing to do with soccer, but it was a pic artistically snapped by S5 today.
