Friday already?
Friday, August 21, 2009 at 10:27AM Wow. Time truly flies when you don't want it to, LOL! So, two things today. First, yesterday all three boys had their first soccer practices of the season. They're all happy with their teams and I think it will be a good year. Very excited about the number of families we're seeing now that we already know...makes the experience just a little bit sweeter, I think. And, here's my little Micah at his first ever soccer practice:
;)
Isn't he adorable? :) (He was pretending to kick the ball here...his idea, not mine, lol.) I had to laugh whilst watching the U5 practice...six little four year old boys, many of whom hadn't officially played soccer before. When the coach told them to grab a ball and follow him (dribbling around some cones), more than half of them literally grabbed a ball (in their arms) and walked behind him. ;) Yup, gonna have to be a little more literal, coach.
In any case, I'm mentally preparing myself for the season...a season of six practices and three games each week. The practices all land on the same two days and end up roughly back to back...in different locations, all about 10 minutes apart...which is good and bad, of course. :)
I've got it now so that getting boys to Micah's and Asher's practices is fine, but I'm still working on how to get Noah to his practice in time without making Asher miss half an hour of his practice. Don't worry, though, I have a few options I'm looking into. Oy.
So, thus begins my fall full of soccer. :) Now that we have this stuff squared away and on the calendar, we'll think about actually starting back to a full homeschool schedule next week. But don't hold me to that. ;) (Our Options program, by the way, doesn't start up until September 14.)
The second thing for today, then, is that today my layout is the featured one over on the Good Grief Blog. Please take a moment to go check out the layouts over there (not only mine) if you haven't already. Thanks so much for your continued support! (and...look for a new feature starting next week some time, okay? Yay!)
