Soccer Stars

Ella and Hannah started playing soccer this fall and let me be the first to say... They ROCK!  ;)  They truly enjoy playing, even in 90 degree weather (ugh).  So far Ella has made three goals (in two games) and Hannah has been great at hustling with the whole team.  She is a bit timid to approach the ball... Could be because of the 9 other kids hoovering around it.  But, according to her, there is another reason altogether which makes perfect sense.

"Mommy, do you know why I didn't kick the ball at the last game?"


"No, Hannah, why?


"Because... I was too busy playing with my pig-tails."


"Yeah.  You do have a point, there."


What I love the most is the looks we get after they have chased, kicked, scored, or simply ran anywhere on the field... Full of pride and wanting to make sure we were watching.

That's so cute! I love the picture of Hannah looking at you and beaming! So precious!


Just the Six of Us

Six may seem like a lot but only to others. It is who we are. Some people like peace and quiet (who doesn't?), but the quiet we lack we gain all the more in giggles, feet scampering, I love yous, tickles, tiny voices singing. Being a mother to these four amazing little people and a wife to the most incredible person I know is a blessing that can't be put into words; I am living my dream.
