We are now what you would say up to our knees in soccer. This is just the way we like it. I love a good soccer game when I get to sit on the sidelines and cheer my girl on from a nice slouch chair with the breeze softly blowing my hair out of my face. I love it!! I love soccer when the weather is perfect and perfect for me is when the temperature requires a light jacket with my favorite jeans and there is always this quiet that is a perfect calm for me right before the game starts and before the tension rises from the excitement of who is going to score takes over my body, I love this calm moment. My friend Tara always comments that I look calm and she is right, I am. I know that everyone experiences the game in a different way and that is the joy of sports. It is a roller coaster of emotions and after three days of soccer our bodies are tired. As I sit here thinking about the weekend and my role in it, well I basically sat and ate the whole weekend. It is amazing how exhausting sitting and watching your girl play soccer can be and then you are so hungry afterwards. So that is what I did in Plano, TX while my girl ran up and down a huge soccer field for an hour six times in three days. She is 12, she recovered nicely and is ready to do it again. When we were leaving Texas with her new bling she said she had fun and that is all I care about. Sure it is a bonus that she brought home a second place medal in a tournament that had almost 600 teams in it. My girl and her teammates worked hard all weekend and Texas knows who TSCH is now. The girls were amazing to watch and it is always neat to see a team come together and achieve something together. I love that my girl is a part of a team.

Showing off her new bling! |
I remember being on the basketball team in junior high. No I didn't play a lot and really I wasn't real sure of my abilities as a player and it showed on the court. That honestly didn't matter to me so much. I just loved being a part of the team. Each time we went out on the court we all had the same goal and we needed each other to reach that goal. Ok ok really it was all about the fun bus rides to away games. Loved them! I was all about the fun!! Most of my teammates went on to play high school basketball but I really didn't have what it takes and that was ok, it was time for me to move on and that is what I will do now with this post I will move on. I have completely somehow managed to make this post all about me, myself and I. I am good like that. I do tend to be quite selfish when I don't have my boy with me. I take small pleasure in doing nothing and sometimes I forget that something needs to be done. We left my boy home with his grandparents while we went to Plano. That really is the way he prefers it. He does not like soccer games and I end up at the farthest point away from the field that allows me to still kind of see what is going on and that is one reason we decided to leave him with his grandparents. He gets a nice break from his mom and I get a break that leaves me missing that cute smile he gets when he knows I am coming to sit by him. The thing about leaving him at home is I can totally focus all my attention on my girl. I enjoyed shopping at IKEA with her and of course going out to eat and taking our time. It truly was nice. So sure we played soccer but mainly I got to bond with the girl.
