Kylee started taking soccer this spring. It wasn't an offical league with games but just an introduction to the sport to help teach the basic rules and skills. Her and Pete would go on Saturday for 45 minutes to learn from Coach Ariel (who Pete says was fantastic with the kids.) We all had our fingers and toes crossed that first week as we weren't sure what was going to happen with our shy and apprehensive girl but it was a great success!
Pete has been reporting that Kylee has been doing a great job each week. She listens to and follows the directions and is able to do all the different skills that Coach Ariel is teaching them. After going through the directions for an obstacle course he asked if Kylee thought she could do it. She shook her head and was off ... she did the whole thing! ... by herself!! Pete said it was one of the coolest moments for him to watch her go through the course. All the parents even ended up clapping for Kylee when she was done!
We are so proud of her for breaking out of her comfort zone to try something new and realizing how much fun it is!
