soccer???

So my son just started soccer and so far I'm thinking - why???! He has always talked about wanting to play soccer and though my husband and I are not big on soccer we thought, if that's the sport you want to try alright! At our last game he spent most of his energy complaining about how HOT he was. (hmmm...that's familiar) He wanted nothing more than the game to end and for the snacks to be passed out! My favorite moment... he was supposed to be the last string to stop the ball from being kicked towards the goalie. The opponent was coming at him strong and instead of trying to kick the ball the opposite way and defend that turf, he moved right out of the way, stood there watching & made room aplenty for the opponent to run up and kick the ball right at the goal. :) So although I have a mini-van, i will be surprised if I end up as a soccer mom. perhaps he will like basketball better, after all you get to be in an air-conditioned gym!
