Kicking it


The current sport of the season is soccer. It's about as popular as baseball with Hayden, which is saying something. He's fairly motivated...when he remembers to go after the ball. Sometimes he gets so caught up in the excitement of everything that he forgets to actually play. Here he is playing defense, jumping up and down while he watches the game.


During the most recent game, he was occasionally somewhat aggressive. Perhaps aggressive is not the right word. Maybe competitive? Some of the kids on the other team were a little scarily aggressive. One kid stood in the opposing goal waiting for the ball to come near him so he could score. He did this even when his own team was on the other side of the field. Ah, U6 soccer.
At this point, Hayden is claiming that he would rather play indoor soccer this winter than hockey. Considering he spent at least half of hockey sprawled on the ice, this may be a good thing.
