After a year of gymnastics and a year of rock climbing, Jonas wanted to try his hand (or rather his foot) at soccer this fall. His first two practices got off to a rocky start with a no show coach both times (I actually ended up coaching one of his practices with the help of a few older, soccer-playing siblings). Jonas had his first game today and did a GREAT job of getting in there (especially considering the fact that he hasn’t had any real soccer training since the one season he played when he was four AND the fact that it was blazingly, ridiculously hot). The assistant coach stepped up to be the head coach and did such a wonderful job guiding the boys through their first game of the season.
