Today was Jonah's first flag football game. I think I was almost as excited as he was. I am excited that he is finally old enough to play. I really think he will like football. He had a practice Thursday night which helped him a lot. His coach seems really nice and is really good with the kids. I was even more grateful for him when we pulled up to the game and heard a parent and a coach screaming at each other. I'm glad we didn't have any problems during our game.
Jonah played center for a lot of the game. He did a great job.
At the beginning of the game he pulled a flag and I thought that would give him more confidence, but he seemed a little timid the rest of the game. I'm always surprised that Jonah isn't more aggressive in sports. He talks big, but he gets nervous easily!
He was the quarterback for one play and he ran it all the way down for a touch down. At one point he thought he had already scored so he slowed down and looked behind him, but luckily he realized he hadn't gone far enough and kept running! He really is fast!
One of his coaches is really loud and playful with the kids. He told them to put on their game faces. I love Jonah's face! It was a great first game. I'm excited for Jonah to learn more about football and have fun!
