Soccer Sunday

The Barefoot Princess had her first soccer game yesterday. They definitely did not win, but they had fun!

BP has been talking about playing soccer since last fall. We signed her up this year thinking it would be a good team sport experience for her. Up until this point she has only done ballet + riding. We hoped she would learn the sport + have fun. Turns out BP is a die hard soccer player. Shocked us! Never would have expected it. Isn't that the cool thing about parenting? These little beings we created are always surprising us. Anyway, we were like whose kid is that? She is all over the ball, sprinting up + down the little field, + very aggressive. I wish I could get a picture of the determination on her face as she plays. Yesterday she took a fall (she said #3, a boy, pushed her, but we are not really sure). She cried for a few minutes, then got right back in the game.
