goal!

The Mayor had his first soccer game this morning and it was so much fun!  There are 6 on a team (and there are 20 U5 teams in our league) and they play a 3-on-3 format...so the chaos is moderate.

The whole team concept is very new to him and making sure he was aware this was a team sport and he couldn't get upset when others were kicking the ball was emphasized about a dozen times to him this morning.  He did great.  No tears or fighting over the ball...from any of the kids!

The Mayor scored 3 goals!  It was great seeing him work the ball away from the pack of kids and dribble it down the field.  The smile on his face was priceless.

Now we are home and getting ready for naps before all of the good college football games start.  It's going to be a long night!
