Football's Over

Rose and Joshua have finished their "soccer skills" course and Joshua has become passionate about playing.  Thankfully, we have enough space outside to play a bit.  We may have succeeded in instilling some British culture!  Seriously, it will at least give him a way to make friends and make something in the school culture familiar to him when we return next year.  I think this is something I agonise about more than Steve because I have been there.  I know what it's like moving and wanting to settle in as fast as possible as a child.  At least I wasn't moving from a completely different culture.  But then I see the gains of their life here - such as Naomi understanding about different countries when we look through the atlas.  I know I shouldn't worry about it - my imagination will only make things worse and we can't slay those dragons till we face them.
