A Victory and Approximately Six Miles

First day of soccer on saturday. We sat and watched. Isaiah was shy and sat behind me on the grass hiding and checking everything out. After a short practice Isaiah's team, the Flames, started a game against the yellow shirts and Isaiah still would not join. About 15 min into it though he jumped up, put on his red jersey and asked to be put in the game. A nice victory for him sealed with a fairly controlled goal (one of very few from his team). Here he is with Aiden, Isola and Malcom on the far left. Sunday we all went on a bike ride on a the bike path that connects Amherst and Northampton. Britt, Aman and Isaiah had bikes and I of course had my skateboard. Isaiah is riding like a shaky pro and Aman is still with training wheels but he made the whole 6 mile loop without any problem. These guys are really growing up!

Cosito!

What a big victory for Isaiah - and then to be rewarded with a goal.

Wish I had been there to give him a big hug!
