So today I took my son to his second day of football practice.... Well let me just say it didn't go as planned! Well for beginners he didn't want to join the other kids for practice. He actually laid on the floor as my husband was trying to take him to the line, so it looked like he was dragging him which he wasn't but I could just imagine what other people were thinking "Look at him forcing his kid to play" But to all those people I say "YOUR WRONG!" Because up until it was actually time to go to practice he was excited he was showing me how he was going to tackle the other boys, and how fast he was going to run. But I guess he got traumatized after his first practice were they were doing this exercise were he had to get through all the players and they had to stop him! OK people just imagine my baby boy now picture him; He is only skin and bone literally the most he weights is 45 Pd's. maybe 50 and I think he might be the shortest one on the team I think? Well anyways so he was getting ready to run probably he should have done that from the begging because he started out like semi walking, so anyways he starts getting his momentum to run when suddenly =BOOM= he gets tackled down by most of his team ates like literally gets tackled down!! After the coach took everyone off him what does he do? Instead of being a good troop and sucking it up and getting back in line he goes to me and starts crying his eyes out, he said that he had hurt his pinkie finger! So he suddenly decides that's going to be the end of the begging of his football career..LOL.. No really he literally didn't want to go back at all!! So I guess that was a harsh reality for him I think he didn't expect that football was going to be played that way! Because right before he went off to try to practice today he said " Their not going to tackle me again right?" and my sister who took him said "NO" so as soon as she turned around and left him he came right back behind her and that was that! So during the whole practice he was just sitting their watching the other boys practice with no interest of joining them...SO we've decided not to pressure him no more, it is what it is! So now he saying he wants to play Soccer, he suddenly likes Soccer! So I guess were going to try Soccer! But you now I'm not mad at him at all, I'm actually proud of him just for trying out, so maybe next year will be his year if he wants to try again!
Hopefully he will like soccer...Im still counting on Javi he will play you will see! :)
