Soccer Mom

It was COLD. Snotty-noses kind of cold. I was bundled-up under a fuzzy blanket, trying to stifle my whines.

And then there were my girls. Out there on their little field playing their hearts out and loving it. I think my heart just about burst with pride watching these two little monkeys playing without fear or hesitation. Were they afraid of the other kids? NO. Were the afraid of getting kicked in their shins like their mom was when she was their age? NO. They fell, they got right back up, grinning. They LOVED IT.

Adi scored 3 goals (and had 3 almost-goals)

Piper, who was her own worst enemy out there as she tripped herself constantly, scored two goals.

We weren't always sure that the girls remembered that they were on the same team...

Even Nana and Papa braved the cold weather to cheer on the girlies!

And little Porter-Pot even did some cheering (while trying to sneak onto the field)
