Jack's soccer game on Tuesday was a disaster. We got creamed 14 to 3. I even kept score when we lost. The opposing team worked in Army precision. Forwards and back and dribbling the ball. I don't even know what that means. I am sure their two best players were pushing 5 years old. Jack was doing the best he could but no way he could keep up with those boys. I could tell the other coach was super competitive when he played his best players for 20 minutes out of the 24 minute game. It would have been nice if he played his sucky players. Anyway, Dominick wasn't in the mood to play so he only played for a couple of minutes. Our team consisted of Jack, 3, Jameson, 2, and John, 2. You can imagine, it was interesting. Jack did score once. We were so excited. It made the beating we took worth it. John blocked (i am sure it wasn't on purpose) a few times and even put his sunglasses on upside down to try and distract the other team. :) Jack got to kick off and throw in a lot since he was really the only one out there. John even threw the ball in and kicked it a few times. When he realized the other kids were running towards him he grabbed the ball so they couldn't kick it. HA! Last game is on Thursday. Weather Channel is calling for rain so we will see.
