The practices have started and the uniforms have arrived and now it is time to put it to the test on the field. Kylie had he first soccer game with her new club on Saturday and we could not have asked for a more beautiful day. Kylie had so much fun and she is really starting to improve! She now spends a lot of her free time with a ball at her feet wanting me to teach her "tricks". Sadly, her team got killed on Saturday but she was not down about the lose. In fact she told me, as we were walking to the car, that she thought that if they just played harder next time that maybe they would win. I must admit that it makes my heart smile to see her loving the game that brought me so much joy as grew up and continues to hold an incredibly special place in my life. Of course at this point who knows what the future will hold for Kylie and her "soccer career" but I am glad that it is bringing some joy to her life right now!
My mom and step dad, Rocky, were here for the week last week which was the first time that they have seen our new stomping grounds. They definitely got a picture into the chaos that is our everyday life right now with work, homeschooling, dance, t-ball, soccer, AWANA, and what ever else that week's schedule may bring. It was fun to have them and the food is always good when mom is around so that doesn't hurt either. Hopefully they will return soon because it was a joy having them here and I know the kids truly loved it!
Angie went to the women's retreat with our church this weekend so I had the kids to myself for a day or so. I hope that it was a great time of learning, bonding, and reenergizing for her because due to chasing the 3 rug rats around, she does not get that enough! We do miss her when she is gone but it is fun to hang with just the kids from time to time.
I hope you are all well and we would love to hear from any of you if you are coming through Jacksonville anytime
