Our outdoor soccer season at the Y started this past month! Cooper and Caroline are both participating this season. In the past, Caroline hasn't really given 100% with sports. She will try but her timidness usually takes over. She is just not one of those aggressive kids, which is fine with me!
This season, Scott and I decided to use our bribery skills. There is a smoothie shop inside the YMCA and the kids beg for a smoothie every day. So, we told them that they could get a smoothie for every goal that they score. Well, Caroline has taken that bribe to the max and has scored in mulitple games! She is having the time of her life! This past Saturday, she scored SEVEN goals! And yes, there was a goalie!
She has mostly been playing forward and has really gotten more aggressive!
There is one goal!
Playing Goalie
Look at her taking on the other team! Three months ago, she would have frozen in her tracks!
There is another goal! It was hilarious! Cooper was starting to get jealous on the sidelines saying, "Mommy, she can't eat all of those milkshakes! That's not fair!". I bet you Little Mr Competitive will try to outdo her next week!
There goes another one in!
Giving her teammate a high-five afterwards
