We went to see Kylie play soccer yesterday, and I never remembered to take out my camera. Watching four year olds play soccer is cute. Or it would have been except for the fact that the team we were facing in this "just for fun, no score kept, let's introduce the concept of team sports" league were all bigger than our team, and obviously had been practicing on the side. Some of the parents were openly wondering about the age of a couple of the opponents, as they towered over everyone else and were far more advanced in terms of coordination and skills. Had we been keeping score, the game would have been called for mercy early.

But I have to heap praise on Kylie. Time after time when the other kids would wilt, or refuse to take the field, she'd get up and go out again. She waqsn't the best player out there, but she got out there and did her best over and over again. That's what makes a winner, and we're all very proud of her.
