Soccer Update

As it turns out, Lacy is NOT a fan of soccer.
Her favorite part is water break.


Another mom on the team said that her daughter was like Lacy last season. They called her a vapor, because she always trailed far behind the team as they chased the ball. But I wouldn't even give Lacy that much credit. She plants herself on the field and just spaces out. Its cute but also very frustrating. Cliff and I scream the whole time. "Run Lacy! Kick the ball! Lacy, where's the ball?! Help your team!" But that girl...she drums to her own beat. She twirls her hair or WALKS toward the ball on a rare occasion.


Maybe she's tired. Her Tuesday games are right after beach day....

Oh well, we tried!

I understand this. I think Clayton is finally getting into it here on his 4th season.

Thanks for posting the sand monster pic. Reminds me of how cranky those beach days made me!

I'm with Lacy. That's exactly how I was when I was a little girl. Except I would pick flowers and make necklaces with them. On the soccer and softball fields, actually. So it sounds like she is not totally lost. Soccer just isn't for everyone. Try basketball. It's harder to avoid the ball.
Those are some cute pictures of her spacing out.
