Caleb had his first soccer game of this season on Saturday. He had practice for 45 minutes before the game so Mike took him up without us. Mike said he did awesome in practice. Did everything right and listened to the coaches. Well come game time either he was worn out, or used up all his concentration at practice or just nervous about all of the watchers because he was kinda a wreck.
He did get to kick the ball a few times. Even in the right direction. But the majority of the time he was off running circles on his own and doing acrobatics and diving on the field, not paying any attention really to what was going on. Mom and Dad were a little disappointed. Grandma and Grandpa still thought he was adorable (of course) and the babies didn't care at all because they got to be outside. He did the same sorts of stuff when he played almost 2 years ago and we thought he would have grown out of it by now.
So Mom and Dad will continue to talk with him about appropriate behavior on the field and hope for better results next week.
Oh BTW, the team name ended up being Lightning. So GOOOOOOOO Lightning!
