ASHERS SOCCER GAME




We had a busy Saturday going to Ian's game at 9 and then Asher had a game at 1:00p.m


Asher did pretty good, but got easily frustrated and lost interest.  Bill and I had to keep him focused.


We were constantly cheering him on, one time he was with another player by the goalie and the ball went in the net and Asher covered his face and went down to the ground to cry.  We told him how he helped score a point but he just did not get the concept.  Once he saw the snacks for the end of the game then it was all over, he became so fixated on the chips he got mad at me because I would not give him any.  I tried to help him understand that they were not mine to give, but if he finished the game then the coach would pass them out to everyone when the game was over.  The organized sports are such a hard thing for these little kids to understand.  After the game he was so tired, I really thought he would go to sleep in the car on the way home.
