last soccer update

Since soccer seems to be going well I'll chill on the soccer posts. Heather finally seems to be enjoying herself although she says that she needs dad to 'tell her where to go'. He's been coaching the goalie/defense area so when she's on defense he tells her when she should go get it and when she should wait in her position. Yesterday was hilarious b/c Heather and another little girl were playing center and the first two goals the other team scored one of the girls kicked off and then the ball wizzed past them. For whatever reason they didn't chase it and were still in the circle to kick the next two balls off ;-). At one point one little girl turned to her friend and said, "we're beating you so bad. it's like 9-0!" In this league they don't keep score officially but obviously the kids do although I'm pretty sure that most of the kids on Heather's team don't get that it's not good when the other team scores it's not a good thing.

During the whole game Charlie wanted to play soccer--pass for a while then I kicked it and both of us ran after it...He played really hard and one guy thought he played better than some of the kids on the field!!
