I caught this picture by shear luck. Michael got kicked in the knee and was so swollen and sore for about a week that I thought his season was over. It is frightening to think of a 12 year old with a knee injury. He is just way to young. He seems fine now, though. He loves soccer with every fiber of his being so I am sure his passion helped with his healing!!
Jasen has a massive kick. It helps that he is already wearing a size 9 1/2 shoe. I remind Emma and Spencer to stay clear of his feet!!
Jasen finally gave in and agreed to wear sports glasses this season. He was really self conscious at first but now everyone is used to them. He definitely makes a better goalie now that he can see the ball coming!! I think they make him look extra tough!!
Emma played for the Water Dragons this season, her first. She has always been spunky but I have been very surprised at her aggresive play. She is always where the action is. She bumps and pushes an awful lot...there isn't much priss about her on the soccer field. She was her teams second highest scorer this year!!
