Electric Mice

Clayton has loved playing soccer this Fall.  There were 16 teams in his five year old league and each team had four players.  His team came up with the name of Electric Mice.  He scored on his first and last game of the season.  The other little boys were much smaller than Clayton because they were young 4 year olds.

At the last game of the season, only Clayton and one other boy showed up to play.  The other little boy did not want to play, so Clayton played the first quarter by himself against 3 kids on the other team.  Bryce and I were so proud of him because he hustled and tried his best.  His teammate eventually played and Clayton finally scored a goal. They won 3-2.  Clayton is so competitive and loves to keep track of the score. 

Every Saturday morning at 9 am, our entire family would come out to support and cheer on Clayton.  One game, Cooper told Clayton that it didn't matter if he won.  It only mattered that he had a good time.  Bryce and I looked at each other with puzzled faces. I said, "Who taught him that?"
