Field of Dreams

current mood: proud

Lexi was super excited about her soccer game today. When she woke up, she got dressed in her uniform and then came in to wake us although we were already up with Abby. She looked so cute. She told us that this week was going to be different than last and she did not underestimate that at all. She played quite a bit more than she did last week and in the first half of the game, she actually kicked the ball about 10 times as much as she did last week.

Lexi's team, The Rockets, played a team called the Lions. When we first got settled in we saw a familiar face, Preston from Revolution church. His son plays on the Lions. His wife is about to have their third child any day now and I could not believe that she was there, too. I tell you what, if I were in her condition that's the last place I would want to be. What a trooper and she looked great!

At one point of the game, Lexi got control of the ball close to the other team's goal and took it all the way to The Rockets' goal before she got tripped by one of her own teammates. She quickly bounced right up and got back in the action. Quite different than her fall last week. At one point, she almost even scored a goal for the Rockets. Lexi was a great team player with a great attitude and we were very proud of her today.

Go Rockets!!!!!!
