After four practices and three games, we are finally starting to enjoy three year old soccer. For the first few weeks, Ben told us he was scared to play and sat in my lap. Ace would actually get out there and try, but would eventually cry and say all the other kids were faster than him. They aren't, but when other kids are ahead of him and he can't catch up, he assumes it is because they are faster. We spent much of the first few games and practices trying to convince two buddies to play.
Today's game was much better. Our boys took turns playing, so it was like having one full-time player. Woo! Ben scored two goals and Ace scored one. Best of all, they had FUN! We may just survive the season after all.

holy crow, seriously A & D enjoyed soccer so much more than t-ball since the play is constant. glad they're getting into it. :)
Stef - were your kids playing indoor or outdoor soccer? Indoor is just so noisy and overwhelming. There are always two games going on at once, plus families leaving from the previous game and families arriving for the next game. It is crazy in there.
