Another busy week! This week saw the start of sports - Challenger Baseball for Alli - practice once a week, and Spring Soccer with the Redding Youth Soccer League for AJ - practice twice a week. AJ has practice on Monday and Thursday, 5:30 to 6:45, and Alli has practice on Tuesdays, 6:00 to 7:30. Both have games on weekends. Add this to Scouts on Tuesday from 7:00 to 9:00, and we are busier than ever! I do enjoy soccer, so it will be nice to hang out for the practices. It does give me a chance to sit and do nothing for a couple of hours, too. (Except crochet, of course!) Tuesdays are a bit difficult, since both kids are running in different directions - which means Ralph and I are running different directions too! Alli's practices won't run for very long - they usually stop when games start - which is the last Saturday in March.

It looks like AJ's soccer team is primarily a U-Prep team. The four kids that made it to the first practice are from U-Prep, and the coach is the parent of a kid in U-Prep. I think another couple of kids on the team are from U-Prep too, but couldn't make the first practice. I think this may help increase AJ's chances of getting on the team this fall for the school. We shall see!
