Premiera Joga de futebol do SierraSaturday morning Sierra had her first soccer game at Escola Americana. Last week's practices ended in tears when the coach had her playing goalie and the kids were giving her kind of a hard time when she was letting the balls through. Goalie-all glory or all shame, man. Tough position for a sensitive girl to play. You can imagine my concern when the game began and I found Sierra in GOAL!!! I was a little worried. However, after the first few minutes, and some encouragement from her teammates, she got the hang of it and did a fine job!! Amidst the excitement, she even found some time to relax on the sidelines and "chat" with her friend Federico. She really had a great time. It was so fun to watch her being part of a team and smiling.
