I have become a soccer mom! Troy and I went and cheered on Gavin at his first game today and it went great. Although we do live in Arizona where the weather is as hot as the surface of the sun, we bared through it to watch him score two goals. (It would have been three but the thrid one went out of bounds.) They don't really keep score in the 3-4 year olds game but we won. Although it might have had something to do
with the
other team only having one little girl who wanted to play. The coach made the best of it and had some of our players play for the opposing team. The coach's motto was "I coach, they play, you cheer!" I am not sure if that is a nice way of telling us to leave the coaching to him, or letting us know we shouldn't be critical if they don't make the goal. It was an incredible day and I was so glad that my sister and mother could come. I think Gavin had the most family there cheering him on, that is one awesome thing about coming from a blended family. I can't wait until next Saturday, I am afraid though that he might one day be embarrassed with his mother's constant cheering and yelling from the side lines but, for now he loves it!
