Soccer has Started!!!
Ah, we are back on the soccer fields once again! Practice started this last week with Bailey's practice being on Thursday.
Now as it turned out, Paul had left all the soccer stuff with me the week before because he was going out of town and had in his head that practice started that week for some reason. So he calls to tell me that he will be flying into Atlanta in time to get to the practice (as he is the coach this season). Later, he tells me if he isn't there to get them started and he will be in there shortly. Okay, not a problem, it's not like I never played soccer before, and I love the game!
Well, I'm getting them started, have spoken with all the parents about what is going on, and all the gave out all the announcements Paul wanted passed on that I get a phone call from him saying he is stuck behind a wreck and may not make it in, even though he is only ten to twenty minutes down the road (he refuses to learn the back roads or this wouldn't be a problem!!!). So in the constant rain, I coached those boys for an hour!
Practice was suppose to be til 7pm but the parents were tired of the rain after an hour and asked if they could go home. I told them it was fine as I really needed to get to cheerleading practice by 7 anyway. But we had already called Charity and told her that we would be a little late due to what I was having to do and she was fine with that because we are always early! Well, by the time we got all the boys to their proper parents, answered questions, loaded up all the stuff, and got to cheerleading it was 7:10 - so we were still late! Oh well, no harm, no foul!
Now Bailey on the other hand had issues the entire practice. If he didn't do just perfectly then he squatted down and pouted for 15-20 minutes at a time. It was just awful!! Hopefully (maybe hopefully) he will do better for Paul next week.
