Her First And Last

"Adopt the pace of nature:  her secret is patience."

Chloe's first soccer game also became her last of the season.  I was so proud of her and thought she did a good job.  She scored a goal and was so excited.  It got a little rough and she was tackled from behind and did a face-plant at midfield, came off the field crying.  When she went back in, she was hit in the face with a ball and later tripped again.  She was crying and couldn't get herself back together again.  Her mommy and daddy told her she needed to stop crying or she was going home, and if she went home, she wasn't playing anymore.  She went home crying, but a few days later wanted to play again.  They said NO.  She says she will play again in the spring.  Girls are so different than boys and she just needs another chance to prove herself.  GO CHLOE!!
