Soccer Girl

The time has finally come that Taylee gets to play soccer. She has been waiting for her chance ever since we first started watching her cousin Ryker play and this summer it came. She takes it seriously and plays hard.
Mom's fault, I don't know much about soccer, but quickly learned the shin guards go under the socks... but she looks pretty cute anyways huh?!

She is the only girl on her team and one of the smallest out there, but she runs the entire time and stays where the ball is and gets some pretty good kicks in. Most importantly, she LOVES it. She asks "how many days till soccer" and when it is a day for a game she gets her soccer clothes on that morning and can't hardly wait till after dinner when the games are.

She scored her first goal last week (which is hard to do when most games you are playing against 7 yr olds that are way bigger then you), but this game was more evenly matched and she scored. I am glad she has something that is hers to do with a new baby around.
