Go Yellow..um...Red Sharks!

Soccer season has offically begun for Xavier. His first game was this morning. We were told their team color was going to be yellow. The boys picked the team name of the "Yellow Sharks." When the jerseys were passed out, they were red! Xavier didn't mind at all. He was so happy to have a jersey, any jersey!
The game itself was hysterical! I appreciate my son so much more now that I have experienced twelve three year olds together on a soccer field(they play 3 on 3). I don't think the other team had a single child that didn't cry at some point during the game. Xavier did a good job of handling the ball and even scored a goal! He doesn't seem to have that crazy competitive drive(yet!)that I expected from him. I asked him what his favorite part of soccer was and he said "chasing the other guys and trying to steal the ball!" I think we may have a future defender on our hands.




Brooklyn was happy with her new role as team cheerleader.
