HAPPY, HAPPY - JOY, JOY!

Ok Peeps, Time to brag, This is Jennifer's 3rd year of playing soccer, she has always been very timid and somewhat afraid to be aggressive, well times they are a changin'. Last night was her first practice of the season and man she kicked major ----KIDS PLUG YOUR EARS---- ASS! The coaches and a few of the parents asked if she had practiced over the Summer and I said no, they all felt she had done a complete 180! I am sooooooo proud of my girl..... OK Second Brag..... Jonathan had his VERY FIRST soccer practice last night, and although I was not able to go Kristine said he too kicked major butt, he was totally into it. This is soo freakin cool, as many of you know I played Football in High School, looking back I have ZERO regrets but if I had to do it all over again I would have chosen Soccer, I feel that Football be it is a hard sport does not take as much pure talent and endurance as Soccer. For this reason I truly hope both my kids continue to play, that and I really hope they can get some sort of a scholarship...... Peace Out! Soccer style......
