Carson had his first “camp” this week - soccer camp through Skyhawks Sports. He was very excited about it right up until about 30 seconds after he took to the pitch on Monday, when he decided he was the only one who didn’t know how to play soccer and we spent the rest of the time in the van just observing (very Carson). Tuesday morning he got up and declared he was ready to try again, and he did great! The rest of the week he was out there, kicking the ball, listening to the coaches, trying to figure out the drills and having a great time. 
It’s given us a lot to talk about: teams, teamwork, the value of trying hard and the importance of not walking away from something new – even if it makes you nervous. Way to stick with it Carson – we’re proud of you!
