We get to the field. Problem #1: You have to walk past the playground to get to the field. Problem #2: For opening day the soccer league got 2 bounce houses, they set them up right next to the field Jake was playing at. Problem #3: Jake.
He didn't want to take off the shirt he wore to the field to put on his jersey. He wanted to play on the playground. He wanted to play on the bounce house. It pretty much went down hill from here. Practice starts, and he just screams and cries and wants to sit with us. We get him out on the filed (with one of us) to meet his coaches.
That was the longest he was on the field. He came back over to us crying, so we took him back on the field. He stood in the middle of the field while the other kids practiced. See next two pictures...
He wouldn't do anything that involved the soccer ball. He sat on the bench the entire time the game was going on except for about 2 minutes when he walked across the field (while the game was going on) telling us he didn't want to play. While he was doing this the ball did hit his foot, so technically he got to play in the game. Please continue down for a great picture of Jake on the bench (he is in the middle of the two ladies on the bench) with the team mom and a comical video of him.
Hopefully next week will be better.
