Blakely has officially started soccer, and I have officially become a "Soccer Mom." (Well, minus the mini-van.) Today, we went to the soccer fields to watch as our little girl started a brand new sport. It was quite hilarious watching these little kids running around, trying to figure out exactly what to do. She is playing on a 6U AYSO team with 2 of her friends. They had their first practice 30 minutes before the game, so you can imagine how funny it was watching them try to figure it all out! Blakely was a little intimidated at first. She wasn't quite sure what to do with all those legs kicking at the ball at once. We have video of her actually kicking the ball and then running away from it during one of the plays! (This was my favorite moment...it was just too funny!) Her coach is our neighbor, and he is great with the kids. Even though Daddy was a little disappointed that Blakely didn't immediately become a super star, he was proud that she managed to make two goals! Once she figures out that she can be aggressive, we may just have a true soccer player on our hands...until then, more ecouraging words from Uncle Drew and Coach Todd will just have to do! Good job Blakley-boo!!! Go Stars Go!!!
