A Great Way to End Summer Soccer

Caden's original last game was rescheduled due to weather, and unfortunately we had plans to go out of town the make up day. Caden was so disappointed he was going to miss his last game because it was his turn to bring treats and he was going to get a medal. I told him we would figure something out.

We organized a soccer game with all the cousins while we were at Hanna Land. Caden was so excited to play.

 After the game Caden got to count down to the team cheer and then he handed out treats to all of his cousins.

 Here's our great soccer team!

The other thing Caden was sad about was that he wouldn't get his medal. I texted his coach to see if we could come pick up the medal and his coach said he wanted to personally bring it over and put it on his neck and tell him what a great job he did this season. It was such a small thing, but it seriously meant the world to all of us.

Caden was just beaming; he was so proud.

 Caden was very quick to tell me he now has TWO medals!

Coach Ty was so cute with all the kids this season, but he was especially cute with Caden. He was so encouraging with him, and always made sure he gave him a high five after every game. My favorite part this season was when Caden made his one and only goal, Coach Ty ran up to him and picked him up and gave him a big hug. His coach was just as excited and proud of Caden as we were! He knew how hard Caden tried every soccer game and how he was just a little bit timid to get right in there and steal the ball. Making a goal was such a big accomplishment for him!

What a great way to end the summer soccer season!
