More Soccer Adventures....

It was a busy weekend at our house... Big A and D had a soccer game on Saturday. And Little A finally started her soccer season on Sunday!! She was so cute out there! The Sunday league practices for 30 minutes, then plays a 30 minute game. That sounds good in theory, but we are dealing with a bunch of 3 year olds on this team.... So it is not surprising that by the time the game started, the majority of the team was in tears and refused to even go out on the field---Little A included. I have to brag though that before her meltdown, she scored one of the first goals!! I learned one important lesson form this first game--- make sure Little A has a nap before practice!!! Very important. We'll see how she does next week.

Also this weekend my home study social worker came by for a home visit. My first post placement report is due to be sent to Russia in the middle of November. I have to due post placement reports every 6 months the first year post adoption, and then yearly for the first 3 years. The social worker was amazed at how well D is doing. This was the first time she met him. I thinks she expected him to be more disabled than he is. He is a very impressive little boy.

The kids are adorable! Congrats on the 3 year old soccer phenom! Of course your son is doing great. He has a family. I get ticked at people who say my son is disabled just because he's missing a hand. He can do anything, just differently.
