1st Soccer game

Danielle has been at 3 soccer practice, but her 1st game was yesterday at 9 am. We got up super early spend a few hours with Aunt Bekah who came for a short visit, and rushed out the door since our closest YMCA is 25 min away without traffic. Anyway, we got there hopping it would not rain like it did last weekend which will cause the cancelation of the game. Luckily it didn't happen. Some girls and parents were already there ready for the game. Not my Danielle she and her dad had to make a scene over the chin guard, the socks and finally the hoes. At this point Charles called me to rescue him because he was about to lose his mind! (never mind I have to deal with situations like this 24/7) So Danielle and I got to an agreement . She was going to wear those things until the game was over, and so she did.
Now the most important thing was that she loved playing soccer, she control that ball from the moment the game started until the very end. She score twice, she was so excited about it all the time. she kept on saying to her coach that she will " Never give up". At moments even the girls on her team tried to take the ball away from her. everyone took a break and turns, but not Danielle. The coach wouldn't take her out. Charles and I were so excited! it was fun to see this side of her so competitive. Unfortunately don't have pictures yet, but I will post them later. The blueberries won their first game!
