Matthew: Soccer Star (Indoors)

Since Nathan got to play basketball this year, we signed Matthew up for indoor soccer. Matthew lives for soccer--although he's having a hard time adjusting to playing on a court instead of a field. "I think I like playing outside soccer better, Mom, because when you fall down you land on something soft." I suppose muddy grass is somewhat softer than a school gym floor when you crash at full speed. Every game he comes home with new scrapes, bruises, and floor burns. But he's loving it all the same.

Matthew takes aim for one of his two goals of the game today.


Matthew got caught in the net with the soccer ball.


"I am a soccer monster...!"
