I can't believe it Caleb has been playing for 9 seasons already. Where did the time go. We played our first game last Saturday against Inner City Thunder. We got beat 5-0 but that's okay my superstar goalie kept out about 25 could be goals. Just got home from our second game a few hours ago against Springfield. Did much better tonight even though Caleb had a meltdown before the game. It is always hard having a game on the first day of school. He was tired and decided he didn't want to play goalie tonight. Just testing our patience. He does an awesome job and loves keeping those balls out of the net. He thinks everyone else is having more fun until he tries to play a different position and doesn't care for the running all that much. We won tonight, even though it was a tough team and by rough I mean pushing, shoving, kicking, and a ref that sure didn't know anything about Soccer.
I am so happy for the time that Caleb has been playing. It really has built character. He used to get so mad when they would score on him but he is learning a little bit more self control. It is such an encouragement. We couldn't ask for a better coach or team of coaches. We have three. The head coach happens to be President for the soccer league. I love the parents love the kids and so enjoy spending time doing nothing but kicking back and watching my kid at his best.
We have another game on Sat against Barberton it should be interesting since some of the team were actually on our indoor league last winter. It is always fun to play against them. One thing that is awesome is that our coach is all about letting the kids have fun. If we win.... It's just a bonus.
We are coming upon my favorite time of year. FALL..... can't wait to see the leaves change and examine the beauty that God has given to us.
