our star athlete












We have been taking advantage of the nice evenings together. Bike rides, trips to the park, coloring with chalk and now learning how to play soccer! I think Nate was more excited than Em when he got her a kiddie soccer goal and ball the other day. Em shows a lot of athletic potential. She dances very well on her toes, can catch balls well, tries to do all sorts of gymnastics, and now can kick a soccer ball into a net! Her hand/foot/eye coordination is surprisingly really good! (That among most things with Emmalyn did not come from me!)
She loves it! Especially when she scores (because of course we make a huge deal of it!)
Here she is in the back yard perfecting her skills. Sometime getting inside the net herself is just as fun to her!

Wow. Great job Em. Can't wait to come cheer for you someday. Love your chalk drawings.

Way to go Em. Pa and T will be going to games again before we know it.
