No way, not my son.
He is cool, calm, collected~
while I am a ball of nerves...
...because I am the mother of the soccer goalie.

(...Who is kind-of, well, sort-of, no, not really- excited as Spring Soccer begins again...)

That really is tough. Brayden played goalie last fall in soccer & I was a mess. Well, now we've moved on to baseball & yes - he pitches sometimes - ugh! Let's just say that I pray a lot during baseball games.
Hope you have a great weekend.
I have never seen indoor soccer... do they do that with football and baseball too? so cool!!!!
My nephews play both soccer and hockey and I've watched them play as the goalie several times and YES it is stressful!! You're right they are so calm about it!!
I am a total mess when Will was playing baseball. I wuld hold my breath the entire time he was at bat. Much more stressful for us than them.
Loved seeing the pictures of him playing. Sorry you were so stressed out watching!
Hope you enjoy the rest of your day and can take some time to relax.

~yeah~ that can be a totally stressful "mom" position to be in...it is hard to just stand by and watch them at their sports and activities sometimes. You just want to jump in and catch the ball for them!
Happy Saturday, my friend!
Bless your heart. I am sure that the feeling never goes away--stressed! Life of a mom and especially a soccer goalie mom!!
It sure looks like he is having a great time down there on the green! :o) I think I would be just like you! :o)

You must be a proud mama. Soccer is so much fun! Enjoy this upcoming soccer season chica.
this post totally made me smile :) Love the pics
Just wait if he ever tries out, travels and plays select...some days I can't handle the nerves...the constant pressure of playing "good" to keep your position...
"G" plays goalie..."Z" does not...I could not handle it!
have fun...we are leaving for a game in 40 minutes :)

You're supposed to be a nervous wreck~that's how they stay calm and collected! :) At least that is how it always seems to go!
I completely understand... Dimples and Bruiser STINK at goalie and I couldn't be happier. However, one of Dimples' best friends is a goalie and I have to hold my breathe while his mom is a cool as a cucumber!

I totally get this! Whenever my daughter played goalie, I was a NERVOUS WRECK. My husband never could understand why...maybe it's just a "mom thing." LOL!
I would be a nervous wreck too!
It's not easy being a Mom sometimes, dear friend. I understand!
I am SO glad that you got your hands on The Help and you liked it!:) I will let you know when we discuss it. I have a few other friends that read it and loved it, too. Wish we all lived closer, but I'll see what I can do about bringing us together.:) Lori
You sound like me. Whenever my son plays goalie I'm on pins and needles...please god, please don't let them get a goal while my son is goalie. :-)
WOW!
You will never guess this, BUT...
I played goalie my last 2 years in college.
Defend til the end!

It sure looks like he is having a great time down there on the green!
