Being a soccer mom (without lipstick) requires a lot of driving and a lot of standing and yelling. You get hoarse, sunburned, and experience periods of tension.
This is a shot of a corner house in Silver Terrace, overlooking a soccer field, where yesterday, our boys won a thriller, 1-0, the third straight game they've won by that slender margin.
This time, the winning goal came in the final 2 minutes or so.
Our girls didn't fare so well but they played a good game in the early morning fog out at Lowell High School.
Julia actually had a breakaway late in her game and a shot on goal. She didn't score but she came very close.
Both of my players had strong games. Aidan seemed to be everywhere at once, using his height and speed to great advantage.
In the end, it's a game, they're kids, and there's always something worth dancing for. By nightfall, however, this soccer parent had enough energy to upload these photos, but not for adding the words. Thus, this morning's update.
