Audrey's First Soccer Game

Audrey started soccer today! She sooo needed an outlet for all her energy and is very athletic, so we've been looking very forward for when she could finally sign up for soccer.

We are so proud of her for how hard she played tonight! It was so much harder than she thought, but she stuck with it, after running off the field several times to tell us she was done and wanted to go home, but she stuck with it. For the first half, she was practically the only one on her team that was aware of where the ball was and that you were supposed to try and get it (and I think she was the best kicker and runner on our team, but that's just my opinion;). She was trying really hard not to get frustrated that whenever she got the ball, someone either took it from her, or she couldn't get it quite in the goal. Put she kept going, and finally she asked the coach if she could be the goalie. She loved it! Good job, sweetie!!
