I have to say, I love going to my kids games. I never thought that I would be one of those parents who go crazy on cheering their kids on but I am, especially because they are both such good players. And no, I'm not just saying that because they are my kids. Always thought parents who scream crazily for their kids were odd, but now I'm one of those parents. I Love It!! My two oldest led their teams to championship win in the Fall last year and also this past spring season. They both kill on that soccer field.
Ok, it was a rough go at it at first but they finally got the hang of it. :-)
I'm with you, I'm a "soccer Mom" but more of a football and baseball mom! I cheer my boys on like crazy, but I am not one of those mouthy loud argumentative to the umpire type of mom like some gals I've seen. I too have a couple of very athletic kids so it makes it thrilling as can be!
ReplyDeleteI was a soccer mom for years until my daughter decided to switch to dance and then I became a dance mom. Watching our children participate in any sport is fun but there are some out there that take it a little too far. It happens in dance too! If you have seen the show Dance Moms, it is really not far off. Some parents are a little too crazy! It's about the kids having fun and enjoying it!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing the pictures of your kids! Thank you for sharing them with us. My husband and I both believe that children should be involved in a "sport". Our youngest, of course, tried several sports, starting with soccer, but landed on dance. It is actually very difficult and I do consider it a sport now. After several years of competitive dance, she has quit to start playing tennis. I cannot tell you how happy we are to be out of that drama filled world of dance.
