My daughter's first soccer practice is today. I'm really excited.
I don't want to impose my ideas too much on her - pressure is not what I want to do in this situation...but I can't help wanting her to be the next Mia Hamm!
Maybe it's just that I couldn't even venture thinking about that for my son since he has the blood condition from prevents him from really being competitive on the field...but she, with all of her allergy/asthma ailments, she CAN do soccer...and she has all the elements to be a good player.
She's tough. She's a gazelle of a runner. She's confident. She has an older brother and has watched him play soccer for years and she's just so cute running around in her ponytail!
I'm hoping that she gets the soccer bug and enjoys it. I wish I'd had more sports as a kid - one of those things I really "want to get right" with mine.
