The Saturdays spent on some freezing cold or scorching hot soccer field, sitting in my folding chair, cheering my lungs out for my little soccer star. I have officially become a "soccer mom."
That's right, Charlie started a little "Mikro" soccer league this past Saturday through Milwaukee Kickers. It brings a smile to my face because I too played soccer through the same league on a team called The Darts. My dad coached that team and I can only hope to someday coach one of Charlie's teams. However, thanks to my dad, I won't have to check out books from the library on how to coach soccer (like he did). He taught me everything I need to know. Thanks Dad!
Enjoy these pics from the first "practice." Charlie loved it and told us he scored 5 goals.
Ready to go!
Mr. serious
Swing!
Paying attention (??) to the coach
Getting his jersey ready. He chose to be #16

Charlie:
I believe I saw you score 6 goals. Papa and I loved watching you! Brings back lots of good memories.
Love you a whole bunch of cookies
I think Christina had a similar picture of Jack in his first soccer game...NOT paying attention. And weren't you and I always being yelled at for doing cartweels during games??? The apple doesn't fall far from the tree:)
