Soccer

I really wanted Jackson to play an organized sport this year. Soccer is a great place to start. We tried to put him on a team through Parks and Rec. He was put on a waiting list. We waited and waited but they decided not to form another team. I was bummed and I knew he would be sad. I was chatting with a friend that lives in another stake and her son was on the waiting list like us and never got on a team. We decided to create our own teams. We met every Friday in the morning, I formed a team from the Vancouver stake and she formed a team from the East stake. It turned out to be so much fun! The kids really enjoyed it, I think the parents enjoyed it and I loved being the coach and having those kids come up and hug me. It was a great success and I think we will do it again!
