Matthias and Soccer

This is Matthias's first season of soccer. He couldn't wait to play after watching his older brothers and sister play since he was a newborn. Well here he is in the middle of the game performing somersaults. You'll also find him spinning, rolling in the grass, and gazing at airplanes passing by. After this game he said, "Mom, the best part of a soccer game is the snacks." Hmmm, I wonder if he wanted to "play" soccer just so he could get the snacks afterward.



I must say though, this past Saturday, he actually engaged in the game during the first half--he even actually touched the ball. That's progress.
