Upward Soccer


Scott got wrangled into coaching Silas' soccer team because the teenager that had agreed to do it dropped out at the last minute. Knowing nothing about soccer, he jumped right into it and we are proud of him for stepping in to help!! He has basically performed "crowd control" and made sure the kids are playing where they need to be and rotating the kids in and out so that they all get to play. Silas is not quite team minded, he doesn't really like the game or have a competitive spirit, but rather he likes the idea of the game. He doesn't like to run. So, we're thinking this will be our last team sport until it's Stephen's turn to try. We'll have to figure out another outlet for Silas, maybe guitar or piano lessons, he seems to really like music. If that doesn't work, we may shoot for karate for the self discipline training. We'll just have to see, I don't really like the busyness that comes with carting the kids off here and there, it just makes us all feel tired and rushed!
