Let the Games Begin

Kirk & I have been anxiously waiting for Adam to be old enough to play organized sports. He still isn't technically old enough, but since Adam has been begging me for 3 months to be able to play soccer, I finally took him in to the West Valley Fitness Center so THEY could tell him no. Instead, they decided to look the other way and let him sign up for soccer, even though he is 3 months shy of old enough. Adam turned to me and asked, "Did they say NO, Mom?" When I told him they said yes, he shouted, "Yeah! I need my team shirt!" Now that he knows he gets to play soccer, he has been on this "team shirt" kick all week. On the 26th we get to go meet the coaches, get his uniform, and get a schedule.

Unfortunately, his first game is May 3rd. You may recall Kirk's post about the fact that his graduation and my sister's wedding fall on the same day, and now we can add Adam's first soccer game to that list. We are crossing our fingers and hoping for an afternoon game. If it doesn't work out that way, we'll have to get someone to take Adam to his first game and we'll just have to miss it.
