Give me an "S"
OK, we did it. We signed Tara up on a soccer team. I'm officially a soccer mom, though I don't have a van. I know that the kids are just going to all run after the ball all over the field in a big clump, with no real offense or defense plan of action. But isn't it just hysterical to watch?!
We signed up in the YMCA league and they already gave Tara her red and blue reverseable jersey. She wears it after school. A lot. And the games or practices haven't even started yet. Add this to Austin's travel baseball schedule and we'll be pretty busy. But it's outdoors stuff and you can't beat that. If spring ever actually arrives.

Posted by: at April 2, 2008 10:05 PMYeah soccer! I hope she loves it... Claire didn't like it the first time she tried in preschool but when she joined a team in first grade, she just loved it... Here's a glimpse of what you can look forward to... Claire's doing a clinic for goalies who are on competitive teams and she came home from it Monday covered in mud from head to toe. But happy... and sore, since the cute British and Irish lads:-) running it worked them out good. So congrats on your--and Tara's--new adventure.

Oh my gosh, at that age the soccer games are a scream. Some kids will be playing, others will be picking dandelions. But nonetheless absolutely thrilling. Go get 'em, Tara!
