Soccer game!!

Yes, soccer season has started.  I can't believe it's already here!  Daniel has moved up to the Junior soccer league at church (based on age) and it's big time now.  I didn't know it when I signed him up but it's actually a week night practice and Saturday game.  A much bigger time commitment than before!  We have practice on a school night - yikes!!  So far it's been OK.  We've been able to get homework done and fit it all in.  The season is short so we should be able to swing it.

They have been doing a lot of practice through August and now today was his first game.  He scored two goals!  WOW!!!!  Soccer is really his game.  In the beginning we tried out everything, but it seems obvious that this is where he is strong so we're gonna focus on soccer.  His boundless energy and fierce determination are really a bonus out on the soccer field.  And it's a good boost to his confidence to be good at something.  We're so proud...
