Dechlin is finally old enough to be on a soccer team!! He is so excited, and was so nervous for his first practice. When we told him on Sunday that his first practice was this week on Tuesday he got a concerned look on his face. we asked him what was wrong and he said "I don't know how to play" We explained how it was a practice to teach him and he felt a little better.
All day today he was asking what time it was, and when was it time to go to soccer, and so when it was finally time he got ready faster than I had ever seen him! On the way there he told me he was a little worried because he isn't a very fast runner. I assured him he would do just fine :)
At practice his coach kept commenting on how fast he was with the ball, and he made 3 goals while they were scrimmaging one on one - needless to say his confidence boosted right up and he was one happy kid!
Soccer practices are Tuesday and Friday's at 5:30 at Baldridge Park. Then his games will be either Thursday or Saturday's starting on the 15th. I am so excited to watch him have fun with this and to see a new side of him develop!
