Itty Bitty Soccer

Jack started Itty Bitty soccer this week and boy was it a hit! He loved it! As you can see from the team picture - he is heads above everyone else. Yes, I know what you moms are thinking, "Can that boy possibly be four? Shouldn't they move him up an age level just for sheer size?"
Well never fear, he is pretty much just happy to run around after the ball...and not actually kick it.

Here he is at playing goalie - he lasted for about five minutes before telling the coach he was done and just wanted to run.

And to put the mom's fears at rest - here is is asking a little boy if he was ok after the boy fell down and started crying.

He is having tons of fun and is just happy to be with BOYS!!

My little guy got pretty good at being the goalie - even though it was a little boring for him. Overall, a very fun experience!

(I'm trying to stay positive and not tell you about his lazy coach that doesn't seem to have a clue and is more interested in socializing instead of keeping track of her team...yes, I proudly have an Eileen Gene and display it from time to time!)

I can't believe he is already playing soccer.

OK... so Kam Dayley's girlfriend came to our church about 3 week ago to church and we got to meet her. They were engaged to be married.Yesterday, Miss Karen said that Kam called off the engagement. I think the Lord answered Karen's prayers. She never felt right about it.

The girls family was going to have a pre wedding reception for family. Karen said, "So does that mean we have to plan on going early before the wedding?" The girl said "No, it's just for my family. You're not suppose to be there." I guess there was many, many more reasons. Can you believe this???
