Raising Two Americans

Dylan is playing AYSO soccer this fall, his second season. His first was this spring.

But this time around, when Brooke signed him up, she signed us both up to be coaches. I wasn’t there. i couldn’t stop it. By the time I was even aware of what had happened, I was committed.

As a child, I played a lot of baseball, organized and not so organized. I played pick-up football. Some basketball. Heck, I even raced bicycles with the kids in the neighborhood.

But I can probably count on my two hands the times in my life I’ve played soccer. And now I’m coaching.

What has she gotten me into?
