Let’s recap: At 3, Alyssa sat on the sidelines refusing to play. At 4, she did great the first few games, but disliked soccer practice every week and by the end was playing very little of each game. We started the spring season again, but after 2 horrible practices, we took her out. Here we are at 5. And the way they say that 3 is worse than 2, I can say 5 is so different than 4. Now that she is in school, Alyssa is a little more social, able to make friends pretty easy, a little more apt to try new things and bringing home all kinds of new attitude. Well the first three I think are helping when it comes to soccer. She has done great at each practice, actually running the drills, and playing with the other girls. While this team may not make many goals, she looks to be having fun. She is number 10. Here is her first game this season.
