Alex joined the after-school soccer team just a few weeks ago and this Friday they had their first game. Unfortunately the other team practices together three times a week and Alex's team just once, but they gave it their best shot...and lost 5 to 1. Alex had issues with his shoes. He had broken a loop on his new shoes last week and had to wear his old ones, that kept flying off when he had a big kick. He said he was pretty embarrassed...especially when one hit another kid in the head! Fortunately, we got his new shoes fixed!
