Soccer

Maddie is FINALLY old enough (according to MN standards) to begin to play organized sports. Of course, she was already old enough to do this when we left GA. Very confusing to a child that you can play soccer in one place, but not another. Also, very confusing to the parents of said child who can't find any sport their child can participate in.

Anywhoo, Maddie is so happy to play soccer. It doesn't seem to phase her that there is only one other girl on her team. Nor does it phase her that the boys out voted the girls to call their team "Transformers". Well, duh....when there are only 2 girls.....not a fair vote if you ask my opinion.

But, since you didn't I will just share some pics.....

Pictures from our trip south

Sorry for the delay, but here are the pictures from our trip south. We really enjoyed our few days in ATL before we flew on to the beach. It was great to see friends and attend church back at NFBC. And of course, we had a wonderful time at the beach!!

You've come a long way, baby....

Today I sent my baby girl off into the great unknown that is Kindergarten. To think that she is old enough to attend school is a scary thought. It forces me to reflect on how fast time has gone. Surely she was just born yesterday, right?!?!

I am sure that just yesterday she was the drama queen baby that was kicked out of the hospital nursery for crying too much.

Really, just yesterday she was named "Spit Up Queen" due to her incredible distance she could project her formula.

I am quite sure that yesterday she learned to crawl.

While in real life, yesterday she was my nervous little five year old. Scared of what Kindergarten held. Frightened she wouldn't have a friend or find her way to her classroom.

And today......

Well, today she knows there is nothing to worry about.

Today, she conquered Kindergarten.

And tomorrow.......tomorrow holds endless possibility.

We love you Maddie and we are so proud of you!!!!
