Keira played AYSO soccer last fall and we thought we would give Upward a try this spring. So far, so good! I like that only 4 play at a time and no goalie and they have to kick outside the blue arc at the goal. I love that they do devotionals with the kids every practice and at games. Keira really loves soccer the best of the sports she has tried so far. We decided not to play t-ball this yr, and would have went back to the church league she played in last yr. They only played 6-8 games, can't remember now, and it was free. Plus, soccer and t-ball games are at the same time on Sat. mornings, so......I am thankful she doesn't want to do t-ball yet, I really don't want to be at a ballfield almost every night of the week and then on saturdays at various times. I have had people tell me I should sign her up, no thanks. Plus, she likes soccer better than t-ball, I guess b/c you get more action. She can play when she wants to, I am not forcing her to sign-up for anything. Next yr, Brock will be able to play, so we will probably go to the church league again and have them play at the same times and same field, if they want to play. Brock wants to play everything so bad already and it is hard to explain to him why he can't play yet. He thinks he is as big as the other kids.
Keira told me on the way home after the soccer game, that a girl on her team told her she had to be 7 yrs old, not 4, b/c she was tall. Her teammate is 6 and Keira is just a little bit taller than her, so in her thinking, Keira must be older than her. No one has ever said anything to Keira before, so I guess this must have got her to thinking about her height.
