End of Season Soccer Party

Mikenna had an awesome Spring soccer season. She did get a black eye and twisted her ankle...but she hung in there and continued to play well. She loves soccer...loves her team mates. They have been playing together for 3 years now...they are quite the group of cute girls! I love to see her play and also bond with neat girls that loves soccer just as much as she does. They each had to say what their team mates strengths were as they were getting their medals. Her team mates said that she was fast and is a good forward and defender. They had a great time at Eatza Pizza...getting high on sugar; giggling as girls do; and earning tickets with arcade games and choosing their treats and prizes at the prize booth. She came home and was sad...started crying because she didn't want soccer to be over. She was going to miss playing and seeing her friends every week. I told her we could invite her girlfriends to her birthday party in June...and we could have play dates through the summer; and she could play soccer again in the Fall. Girls really form emotional bonds with one another at an early age. I am thankful she has made some strong bonds with girls her age that enjoy the same things she does. Awesome job Mikenna! We love you!!!
