GO Lady Bugs

Kaylin's team is the lady Bugs and they are so cute, running in little herds kicking and chasing the ball. Whenever any one of them gets it they keep kicking it in what ever direction they are going, even when it is toward their own goalie. Kaylin even made a goal following this philosophy. I guess turning the ball around is a developed skill. Any way here are some pick proving my point of cuteness!!!

Picture day, and is she cute or what?

Kaylin and her school bud, Faith!

Go Kaylin! She scored off this one, unfortunately it was our goal, so didn't count, but great effort and dribbling skills nonetheless!!

The proud family!

I can't believe I am a soccer Mom!

Kaylin had her first soccer practice tonight!! She had so much fun and was really pretty good. Two girls on her team go to her school, one is in her class and the other in another class. She wasn't shy or anything she just ran right up and listened and did what she was supposed to do, I could not have been more proud. So, despite my initial pessimism that this may not be her thing, Kaylin just may prove me wrong and really like this and be good. I am glad I didn't listen to that pessimism and gave her the chance to yet again surprise me!! Any way her coach is Mrs Lourie, who is really nice and they are the Lady Buugs, how cute is that!

Can you say "GOAL!"

"GO LADY BUGS!"

The Tooth Fairy does Exist!

The Tooth Fairy paid her first visit to our house tonight, if you haven't heard, Kaylin lost her first tooth today at school. Stefan went to have lunch with her and text me a picture of this mouth with out a tooth (some of you lucky ones got that text). She couldn't wait to show me tonight. When I asked her for the details she said "I was nervous and Sarah, Her new best friend, told the teacher." She is so cute, got nervous, I guess people were looking and all in her space. Any way the conversation quickly turned to the Tooth Fairy and she asked, "is the Tooth Fairy going to come? I know it is you mommy!" Off course she came bearing cash rewards to be spent this weekend at our favorite Dollar Tree.

My little girl is officially a little girl; kindergarten, loosing a tooth, what is next, learning to drive?

We are very excited but mommy is struggling with how fast it seems like she is growing up all the sudden, like in just the last three weeks. I need time to catch up and come to terms with it.

Panic for no Reason

Today was the first time I have taken Kaylin to school and not been able to walk her to her classroom. Starting this week we can't go down the hall unless we sign in. So what can I do? I can stand at the beginning of a very, very long hall with all the other nervous moms and watch her walk to her room and pray she finds it and doesn't get lost or scared. The only problem with all this watching is other kids and adults who get in the way and I can't see her. Her classroom is at the very end of the Hall, whoever thought putting 3rd grade at the beginning and Kindergarten and the end was a good idea didn't clear it with me or the other nervous moms, I mean, it makes no sense.

Any way, after loosing sight of her at the end I panicked and thought she went to far; I imagined her realizing she missed her room and panicking and crying so I ran down the hall with out signing in to make sure she was okay. To my very pleasant and relieved surprise, she was safe and happy in her class. I guess the moral of the story is relax Tracy Kaylin can do this and she knows where she is going. Letting go is so hard!
