More on soccer - three days a week

Aden is still playing soccer; a game on Saturdays and practice Mondays and Wednesdays. He's getting pretty good! He's still a little slow at running compared to the other (two years older) boys, but honestly if he really ran as fast as he could I personally think he would be faster than some of them. The problem is that during the game, he just sort of "fast walks" and then when they call for a water break he runs like the wind over to the water bottle. It's very difficult to get this child to put any kind of motivation into anything that he doesn't want to do. And unfortunately he's very rarely motivated. I feel like I am looking straight into the crystal ball of Aden's future right through to his teenaged years.

The photo above though is Aden asking the coach if he can be a goalie. And Coach very nicely changing the subject.

Ethan is a huge fan...


He's at all the games cheering on the sidelines. He's happy to stay off the field as long as there's snacking involved. As soon as the snack offerings end though, he's back to trying to run out on the field.


Sometimes we can side track him with things like wagons and shiny things.


He really is his brother's biggest fan though.


After mommy that is.


This is Aden's highly intimidating defensive stance. Watch out opponents, Aden's defending the goal! (You just can't teach this kind of talent).



More snacking means more sitting. Go Wildcats!
