Soccer time

Jackson started soccer a few weeks ago and it has been quite an experience! He had a rough start the first couple of games. He was a bit overwhelmed by the whole thing, all of the people, etc. We spent the first game in tears and refusing to play. We felt so bad for him and it was the first time that my heart has truly been sad for him. He seemed so confused, timid, and completely overwhelmed. I do not like to see him so upset and feeling that way. The second games was better, third game was back to refusing to play and this past week he was awesome! He played majority of the game and stopped the ball every time while playing goalie. When he kicked the ball back in, he got excited and took off down the field kicking the ball and leaving his goal. It was hilarious and he had such a great time. Grandpa told him that he "kicked tail" and the next time he came out of the game he let us know that he "kicked tail." We were so proud of him and happy to see him excited about the game!
