Jonathan decided he wanted to play soccer this year so we signed him up for Upward Soccer at our church. This is a great way to play sports without being so focused on winning and hearing about Jesus in the process (a great way to reach the unchurched families), and just a great way to have fun. While signing Jonathan up for soccer, I also volunteered Song to be coach. Song was confused how this happened, but today he had a lot of fun being out there with all the kids. To me, Song has such a natural coaching ability and a great love for sports (which he is trying to instill into Jonathan). HannahKate had fun cheering on her big brother as well, even though we did not get a chance to watch much of the game. I always wondered when I would become a "Soccer Mom". Well, today was the day, but I hate to disappoint you, I will not be driving a mini van any time soon!!!
This is great! I love Upwards sports. We used to have that in our church when we lived in NC. I just started coaching soccer myself. So fun! I think your mom is coming to visit this week. My mom is here for the week and apparently your mom is in FL too? So they're getting together. It will be good to see your mom again!
