Every couple of days I have 3 little 8 year olds in the backseat of my car. Either coming or going from soccer practice. It feels like we have just crossed a major milestone. It might seem silly but listening to the 3 girls giggle, tell stories, and just chat like no one can hear [...]

Soccer mishaps
November 12, 2011 by 2 Comments
Today’s soccer game was pretty eventful. While we won 2-0 the other team had “a leg” that took out 3 of our players. She would lean back and give that ball a huge kick up in the air and bam right into your chest. MB was her first victim. Just a few minutes in. At [...]

Today was our 2nd soccer game of the fall season. MB was going to be play goalie for one half. She had practiced with her coach, a little practicing around at home. She was excited, she was ready. She decided that for the game her teammates could just call her Hope Solo for the game. [...]

Be aggressive. That is what the soccer coach keeps telling the girls. Be aggressive. I have been hearing him say this at 2 games and at practice. Makes sense, get in there girls and be aggressive. Well the other night we are at dinner…and somehow the question comes up. We ask MB what is means to [...]

I had a proud mommy moment today. A rare moment in this type of situation. It was our first soccer practice. The real soccer league. 6 year old girls. MB only kinda knew one of them….but from first sight a good group of girls. All the girls brought their own soccer ball. MB’s was pink. [...]
Soccer Saturday

MB is just loving her soccer team. I am really happy we decided to ease into it. Her team only meets one hour on Saturday. 40 min of practice and drills and then a 20min game. It is just what she needs to learn the basics, build confidence, and score a few little goals. It [...]
