Oh The Fun!

The children are in soccer camp for 6 weeks (one clinic and one weekly game) through our Homeschool Sports Organization called Sportskidz AZ. This was week two, and it's so much fun to watch them. Bethany and Daniel are on a co-ed team and two of their friends are on the team with them. Their coaches are superb and are so great with kids. They're homeschooling Dad's and both pastor a church together. The fun for me was watching Danny out there helping them with their kicking drills before the game. He had to do it just for his own sanity as the young assistant had about 20 kids lined up and wow, she was really relaxed about the whole thing. Thank you for relieving the stress of many Moms and Dads, Danny. That line really started moving after that.

Then the even more fun was when Bethany and Daniel really hustled, tracked the ball, and wah-lah, the first goal of the season for their team was by none other than Daniel himself. Bethany's face lit up like a Christmas tree. She could not have been more proud of her brother. I love their love for each other. It looks good on them, and it helps me get through the times when one gets aggravated at the other just for whistling. They gave each other a hug after Daniel's scoring opportunity, and it was really sweet. They love their sports team and seeing their friends mid-week so much they even gave up swimming lessons until July. We'll all be ready for the pool by that time. Until then, the water sprinkler works really well! They're wired for sound tonight as tomorrow we then fly to Georgia for fun with the cousin. In kid world, two children plus one more equals fun for a dozen, so we'll come home with pictures and lots of stories.
