I don't blame you - football can be scary, but it also teaches teamwork, commitment, tons of stuff.<br /><br />(And I'm totally taking notes. I love the idea of child labor versus get involved in something YOU want. It's a twist on the whole "you're bored? Okay, well, let me find you something to do." I love it!)a Tonggu Mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01365812914466181060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-91207980231869844472009-10-06T21:02:36.686-04:002009-10-06T21:02:36.686-04:00Sometimes pushy mom is the best mom.

It has been a real character builder for Gregory. My follower is becoming a leader and his shyness is starting to dwindle. From one pushy mom to another - welcome to the club!

Can't wait to see him in full gear:)<br /><br />Nick sounds very much like J....we have had to push him as well. In fact, my post tomorrow morning is about him and his love of soccer. He did not want to play in the beginning either.<br /><br />LisaHalf Gaelic, Half Garlic!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17227046808604837073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-44074223771168782752009-10-06T12:38:25.433-04:002009-10-06T12:38:25.433-04:00I am laughing so hard.

G is already involved in soft ball league. <br /><br />I went to a private HS and we did not have alot of team sports that competed against other schools. I was on a swim team though with a private club and tennis team. I was also involved in my community with National Charity League Ticktockers. I really enjoyed it. We did alot of community service projects.<br /><br />G. teacher this year is going to have them involved in community service. Usually they are the ones getting the help so it is good for them to give back!<br /><br />Kudo's!<br />Jodysweet momma luv uhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01436598699660242393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-9137069253545701322009-10-06T00:47:15.979-04:002009-10-06T00:47:15.979-04:00You're such a good Mom Kayce.

It definitely helps them mature and develop and - as our uni admissions adviser - I can say it most definitely helps support their uni and college applications.<br /><br />Hope Big J enjoys his football experience :)Lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12711583593777948158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38184985.post-15243546209569804752009-10-05T22:59:17.966-04:002009-10-05T22:59:17.966-04:00I was involved in school and I have tried to get t...I was involved in school and I have tried to get the kids involved.. but it is funny because they are all 3 different..<br />Nick was in football,wrestling and track and he was in the key club and then joined the EVIT program that got him to where he is now...Colton played some football but it was not his thing.. he has not got into any clubs cause he just doesn't like those things... but he is in automotive in 3 classes.. and he loves it..<br />KyLee on the other hand did dancing then she didn't do it this year.. and we have tried gymnastics and then she is not in anything but LOVES to be in clubs.. <br />I think J will find the right thing for him..Sounds like he is starting too..<br />Hugs..<br />have a great week..<br />hope it goes fast..<br />love ya..Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16373111344793230801noreply@blogger.com
