What's making you a tad apprehensive today?

Hector's first hockey game in goal. That's what's making me apprehensive.

He's put so much work into becoming a goalie. What if it goes badly and he hates it or the other players are shitty to him? What if he really isn't any good but doesn't want to stop.... what if... what if. I know it will all be fine, I'm sure it will, and if it isn't we have time to work on it and the team has resources.... but my mama bear streak is kicking in......

(notice I'm not worried about him being injured -despite my other son injuring his own goalie in practice this morning...... )

I'm rarely nervous for my kids -Thor's been in goal a squillion times, but somehow, because he's starting so late and because he's invested so much into it, this one is getting to me. Wibble.
