"No crying in soccer"
Ok so at least I didn't pretend that I was going to be a good blogger....right? I have this blogging app on my iPhone now, so maybe I will actually write a little more often. Tonight was Kierstyn's second soccer game since playing for the Cherry Bombs. It's really funny to watch her. She is so much smaller than the other girls her age....Reminds me so much of myself at her age. In the first few practices an the first game, we had some trouble with her crying a lot, not understanding the game, feeling like she wasn't getting a turn to score because the other girls are faster. Rodney and I have since talked to her a lot at home about playing your hardest, playing as a team, an doing your best. It's been great to see her attitude change since. It came full circle when she sat next to one of the biggest girls on the team who was crying and whining and she put he hand on the girl and said- um, hey, there's no crying in soccer. It was a proud moment for a mom.
