Soccer scoring 4 points in 4 days

Soccer season started last month and this is the 1st year Houston has been anxious to play. He has been looking forward to it and has so many "old friends" on his team. This is his 3rd year to play and if you know him, you know, he was very shy the 1st year. (cried every game) but we wouldn't let him quit. The next year, he warmed up, but was knocked down by a bigger kid, the 1st practice and was so scared to get near the ball. This year he is at it! The child is aggressive and after the ball ALL the time.
He had his 1st game Saturday and scored 2 goals and blocked 3(when he played goalie). My friend Ashley thinks he scored 3, but we thought 2. Oh well. Anyway, we told him he gets $5 per goal, so of course after he scores, he says"I get $5!" He is so funny! They tied on the first game against the other team on Saturday. Our goalie was having a hard time in the beginning and the final score was 6 to 6.
Tonight he had another game and we won 4 to 0. Houston scored 2 goals and his friend Wyatt scored 2. He blocked a couple too.

Do you see a happy child here or what?

I am so proud of him this year and so happy he is doing so well. I didn't think he was ever going to come out of his shell. lol
