Marleys first Rugby game

Marley was not scheduled to play today, but his coach wanted to give him some play time and see how he would do. He did great by the way (=
His first game was in Santa Clarita. I cant express enough how proud I am of him, he was pretty nervous at first but the after a few minutes into the game, he was just fine. He really wasn't too sure about playing Rugby, but after his first practice on Thursday he quickly fell in love with the sport. Ruben and I decided last year that it would something different for him to try and we knew that he would not like it at first.
We are looking forward to the next game. It was pretty cool for Marley when he went to his first practice, because he knew one of the boys. Jacob is Marley's friend from his previous school, Burbank. Marley was SO happy to see him...made things for Marley so much easier and the butterflies from his tummy went away before he knew it.
