Tucker's first soccer game!

Well today was Tucker's first soccer game. We were all really excited. Since he didn't do so well at t-ball we thought maybe he would actually pay attention this time. Just like T-ball he does great at home and at practice. He runs and kicks the ball tries to score goals and everything. This morning however when it comes to game time... he just stands there. Ocassionally he will run after the ball then barely kicks it. He is afarid to kick it away from the other kids and said he would rather just watch. Being the competive person that I am, this drove me nuts once again. I don't understand why he just stands there. At least he looked cute. His shirt, shorts and socks the team ordered are all about 4 sizes too large and he had a hard time keeping his shorts up when he did make those few strides. We will keep practicing and maybe next week will be better.
