Motivational Monday ~ Making that important play

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

I love watching Handsome Hudson and his team play soccer. They play as a unit and are learning life skills along the way. They work and celebrate together. Sometimes those all-important plays can make or break the final score. At the end of the day it’s how you function working together that breed’s success.

Hi Patricia Feager, MBA, CRS, GRI,MRP ,


Hudson has so much energy its good to see it funneled in a positive direction. He is growing so fast and reminds me so much of his dad (my son) at that age.

Hello Dorie - Hudson definitely looks determined but I had to chuckle to myself as I looked at the crowd in this photo.  The attendees seem to have a different level of involvement.  Watching children's sporting events can be a challenge.  Obviously.    Keep up the good work, Hudson.

Hi Michael Jacobs ,


Everyone is bringing their kids with them so I have to laugh when I see some on their iPads and some catching up on their homework!!! LOL!! Hudson's teacher came to his game as there were 2 other boys in his class also playing. I thought it was wonderful she took the time to come.

Dorie, Sometimes I think the kids know how to play together better than their parents. I have too many stories I could tell on how some of the parents reacted during games when our kids were young...

Hudson has wonderful coaches that instills a cooperative attitude and that goes with dealing with parents too!

He is so adorable and looks quite focused. I watched my grandson play soccer yesterday, he said I picked the right game. They won 3-1. Last week, they lost big. As for learning life skills, and how to work as a team - yes!
