Ellie had her first soccer practice tonight. Her coach is great with little kids. Ellie turned out to be the crier of the group tonight. Last week it was another little girl and next week I'm sure will be someone else. She didn't carry her ball around this time, her problem was that she didn't want to play with someone else's soccer ball. So they played with hers. That was the next problem: everyone was playing with her ball! We'll have to work on that.
At the end, they discussed a team name to go with their green uniforms. The top competitors were The Dragons, The Snakes, and The Dinosaurs. On the ride home, Ellie was still pretty concerned about playing with different soccer balls, until the conversation changed to the team name. She is set on The Fairies, which was a name not brought up at practice of course. Once we got her set on The Dragons, she was very disappointed when we got home and her uniform wasn't a dragon costume. Good news is, she likes her uniform anyway and looks pretty cute in it too!
This soccer stuff is just so confusing!

Pretty funny! I bet tomorrow goes much better. Now she knows more what to expect. She does look cute in her uniform.
