While there's plenty in the criminal law atmosphere I could write about today, I'm writing about something that's more important to me. Tomorrow at noon, my daughter's U6 soccer team plays their final game of the season. And while I am so happy for the kids and the way they've played this year, I'm also sad.I'm saddend because I will miss getting together with the kids for an hour every Tuesday working on their soccer and teamwork skills. I will miss helping my daughter get her shinguards and shoes on every Saturday morning. I will miss outlining practices and putting together lineups. I will miss throwing my bag of coaching gear in the truck of my car and heading to the soccer field. I will miss seeing the kids celebrate after a goal -- and after a game. I will miss chatting with the parents before and after practices and games.
And then, before I know it, September will arrive and, once again, it will be soccer time!
What a great post! I love that your daughter is playing. I love that you are coaching. I love that you love it so much that you will miss it. It is all good and you are giving her self-esteem that will last a lifetime!
