First Soccer Game of the Season

Last Saturday the boys had their first soccer game. The soccer game schedule is a little crazy for us, with us having only one car and their games close together time-wise and at different locations. So I had to drop Peter and Kristjan off an hour early for his game so I could drive Clifford up to Marysville in time for warm up before Clifford's game (start time was 10 minutes apart!). Peter said Kristjan and his team did good, though they need to not be so timid and go in for the ball. Sadly, they lost. On a happy note, they used Kristjan's idea for a team name - Silver Dragons. As for Clifford, he was amazing!! He does best as a Forward, which was the position he played for this game. He runs really fast and is focused on getting the ball. Their team won 12-2, with him scoring 7 of those points!!! I guess at practice Monday night some of his teammate were mad at him for scoring so much. I told him to ignore what they said, and that if he has the opportunity to score, to take it! One of the mom's jokingly said Clifford is expected to score that many points minimum at each game :)
