Johnny played soccer for the city this year, it was a very interesting and trying experience! He asked us if he could sign up for soccer so we let him, and then he complained about it a lot. We tried bribes, and just encouraging him to try, but neither worked. So, we gave up, we kept taking him and just didn't make a big deal about it.
This is from Johnny's first game, and this is how he spent his time at every game until the last!
And here, at his very last game......something clicked! He actually tried and did well, he scored 4 goals! I guess backing off was the key the whole time!
Love his little shin guards! They were so big on him!
He stopped playing when he noticed the camera was out and decided to make faces at me instead.
Final cheer with his team.
Overall it was a good experience! I think we learned a lot about Johnny's personality and his interests and how to help him be successful at things. We got some cute team pics, I need to scan them into the computer and then I will post them.
