Soccer

Miller is now playing soccer. He's on a team with lots of his friends and is loving every minute of it. Jud is an assistant coach. The head coach let the kids pick the name the team and they came up with Fire Dragon Horses.

This is right before his first ever organized sports game.

With Assistant Coach Daddy.

They have ten players on the team and five play at a time. Here is half the team sitting on the "bench" watching the game. I just love that our team got their names put on the jerseys - so cute!

Miller's little girlfriend Hannah, scored the first goal of the game. They were so excited.

This is one of my favorite pictures. Both teams say a prayer together at the end of the game. I love that he has his head bowed and eyes closed.

The parents make a tunnel for all the kids to run through after the game. Miller loves every minute of it.

So, watching 4 year-olds play soccer is exactly what you would imagine...unorganized. They hardly know which way to kick the ball. During this first game, Miller just ran with the pack. Actually, he ran ahead of the pack (he's pretty fast and did not get that from us), but not after the ball at all. He figured it all out during the second game and has scored a goal or two at each game since then.

The team chant is Fire Dragon Horses are the best team ever! Unfortunately, we are not the best team ever. I think we've won three of our five games (even though we don't keep score).
