What A Game!

This year, Josiah and Hadassah were on the same soccer team and were privileged to make it all the way to the final championship game. Hopes were high! By the end of the game, it was 2-2. They played 10 more minutes. Still tie. They did 5 penalty kicks. Still tie. Finally, they did penalty kicks one by one - the first to get a goal would win. And eventually, we lost.

The kids had a great coach. One who loved the game and loved the kids. He worked them hard and worked to win but encouraged everyone.

Hadassah was also chosen to play in the all-star game following the championship game. Already exhausted and in the bitter cold, she hung in there but later said she would've loved to go home! Me too.
