Fall is a super busy time around here, but the cooler temperatures make up for the busyness.
Evan started soccer last week. This is his first organized sport. He is on the team with two St. George's friends an four other new friends. There are 8 teams in the group and everyone has at least one or two St. George's friends. So he'll be playing other classmates during the season. This organization obviously just teaches the basic skills of soccer; no using your hands, keep the ball in bounds, and if you are lucky, kick it in the goal.
We also went to Tough Enough on Friday. This is a big pep rally for both campuses of the Lower School at SGIS. There are carnival games, tattoo stations, hair and face painting and refreshments. Evan kept calling it "the big party." He had a lot of fun. One of the main events is the races. All the kids from the grade level run the length of the soccer field. He was smiling and laughing the whole way down. I am so thankful he didn't view it as a 'race' but just doing something he loves - running with his friends.
