Flag Football

We have joined up with a bunch of other Homeschool families for Flag Football. They meet once a week and the Dad's all get out there and coach 25 or so very enthusiastic ( and some what inexperienced) football players. It is a multi age, coed group of kids who are having the time of their life. Josiah had his first touchdown last week and I think he glowed for days. It was quite an exciting accomplishment for him.
He is also proud of his speed but acknowledges that he needs some help learning to catch and throw the ball. He and Dad are going to work on it.

Jonah spends most of the time digging in the dirt and playing on the slide. He loves to go and run around on the field too.
Siri tried playing the first week but decided that football just isn't her thing. She would rather hang out with Jonah on the playground. She is so good at helping him play and also serves as a sweet bridge of understanding between him and the other kids. We have also met some great families and seeing them every week is helping to grow some new friendships. It is a really fun time.
