its official, I am a soccer mom!! enough of the art classes, ballet, cheerleading! we are finally dealing with a ball and a real sport.both girls are involved in an outdoor fall league. obviously i think i like it more than they do. they've both survived 2 games so far. a little complaining and a statement by Sophia that cracks me up and worries me a tad, "Mom, soccer is just not my thing! I'm an artist and a dancer."
its true she may only have 2 athletic bones in her body. she does a lot of whiffing the ball when she tries to kick it, she throws like a girl, and trips over the ball a lot! but she can run, she has athletic genes, and i'm dying to convert her : )
i highly doubt i'll be successful and i'm sure i'll find myself at some dance recital next year but right now i'm enjoying the spot on the field.
now logann isn't as much of a long shot. she is naturally athletic. she can kick the ball, throw the ball, run fast, but man that girl is lazy and always complaining of being tired, hot, or bored. she cries every week about not wanting to go, she tells me she hates soccer! this week on the way there i think i got her attention when i told her if she practiced hard she could make a lot of money playing soccer when she gets big! she seemed to change her tune after that. she is always looking for a way to make a dollar.
alright so i admit it, i'm being selfish, attempting to shape my girls. ultimately they'll win and thats ok.
