The First Sport: Soccer

So, sports....this is a new concept for me.  I grew up dancing competitively for years and then moved into cheerleading.  So, I guess I cheered for sports but didn't play sports.  However, I'll argue with anyone who wants to say that either was not a sport!  Because they are both very athletic SPORTS.  :)

I digress...

Anyway, we have enrolled Tyler in soccer!  He begins March 5 and will play for 8 weeks on Saturday mornings at 11 am. There is a great sports instructional program in Wake Forest that we have wanted to try for a while now.  So, he will be in the 5/6 year old program.  That is hard for me to type as he will be turning 5 in a mere five weeks!!  Tyler is actually pretty good from what we've seen at our house.  Although, bless his heart, if you point to a soccer ball he will tell you it's a football.  Can you tell we are not a sports family??  Step #1:  teach our son what a soccer ball, football, and baseball is. 

I will be certain to take plenty of pictures and videos as best as I can with a 9 1/2 month old in tow.  Come on, do you really doubt me?? :)
