Gavin at Soccer Camp

 
 
 
 

We took Gavin to soccer camp at he Lions Den this week. I thought he would really enjoy it, but Monday he would not participate. However, he sat and watched and he could tell you all the rules to each game they played. He kept asking me about strangers the rest of the day, so I guess he didn't want to talk to strangers - especially ones with a British accent! But, Tuesday, he played the whole time. And, he had a blast! Very hot, sweaty, and tired until he was finished. The rest of the week went alright, too. He warmed up to the coach and the other kids. Some of the other kids were intimidating...a group of 6 boys ages 3-5 would be to Gavin. And, when Doyle and I were talking about who the kids' parents are...they are a bunch of intimidating people when it comes to playing sports...we will let Keith see if he can name any of the kids/parents/grandparents without any help.
Gavin held his own. He was very excited to get a shirt and the ball signed by his coach. Each night when I was putting him to bed, I had to do my best British accent and pretend I was the coach. So, I guess he enjoyed it after all.
