The Star Soccer Team!

Saturday, October 20, 2007

Here are a few shots from our last soccer practice. It is a good think the season is over because it has been pouring rain here all week.


















Natalie having fun being chased by a ball.























Ezra acting like an assistant coach.


















And the team with their trophies at Pizza Caboose. What a great group of kids!

Anyway, the debate I'm having is whether we encourage Natalie to play soccer next year or not. She did great, and we love seeing her exercise and get the wiggles out before bedtime. But at what point do we step back and let her choose her sports 100%? My thought is that if we give her the choice, she will ultimately pick what she likes most and do better at it. If any of you experienced parents have any thoughts...let me know.

My opinion is to try a variety when they are young- soccer,tee-ball, basketball, etc. By the time they are 7 or 8 they'll let you know what they are interested in. The only exception is if they don't click with a sport right off the bat & they really hate it. It's fun for them to experiment when they're young & everything isn't all about winning. Love the little trophies, btw! Aidan had picture day today. All the kids were so cute!
