Soccer

We decided to sign Evyn up for soccer this season for the very first time. Her team is called The Rhinos, her best buddy Braxton is on the team (he's the handsome dark-haired boy tossing the blue ball up), they don't keep score and her coach is gentle and funny. After crying and saying she wanted to go home towards the end of her first practice/game last week, she did much better this week. She really enjoyed herself and even scored several goals. After telling me for several days before her second soccer game that she did not want to go back, this was a relief, however, it took a tiny bit of prodding to get her out on the field. This was where having her buddy on the team really helped - Braxton came up, grabbed her hand and off they went. As much as Holly and I laugh about being soccer moms, so far we are really enjoying getting up on Saturdays to cheer for number 7! It's not like we are not up at the crack of dawn anyway.
