Names, again
Mar. 26th, 2008 07:50 pmBorn: Teagan (a girl). Big brothers are Declan and Eoin (pronounced, basically, "Owen.") No, they aren't Welsh, but Canadian of mixed Anglo-Celtic descent (as far as I know).
On Casper's soccer team, ages 3-preK, which in practice seems mostly like older 3s and 4s. Names have only been heard aloud
Girls: Jessica, Caitlin, Ny, and Casper.
Boys: Amir, Ali, Scotty, Jimmy, Grady, Santana.
Casper is kind of one of the Special Snowflakes of the team. But a big percentage of the kids have had some sort of crying meltdown or playing strike at one point or another (Caitlin, Jimmy, Ali (although only after getting accidentally hit in the face with a ball)). Casper has not cried, but does have a strong tendency to wander off the field, sit down, climb into the net, and approach the coach with irrelevant questions and informative statements. Grady is also somewhat prone to distraction. Amir and Jessica are probably the best players (Jessica's dad is the coach, and Amir seems to be one of the older ones).
We need to try and hit the sporting good store and maybe get a little practicing in before Saturday's 9am game. I tried explaining the concept of the game in the car on the way home. I forsee more right field wanderings on Saturday.
