Amelia Rides Again!

It's spring now, and Amelia is starting soccer back up after a break from fall.  She is really loving playing in jersey #2 on the Rasberries team!  The best part is her daddy is the coach!  They are an aggressive team, winning most all of their games.  Amelia made 3 goals last week, and 1 yesterday.  I didn't get to stay and watch because Grant and I fell into a ravine of mud and were in need of emergency showers:)  We have about 6 more games, and we're done.  Amelia wants to play in the fall again, so we'll look forward to that.  It's hard to believe that this school year is almost over, and my little Millie will be in first grade!  I am not ready for her to be gone all day long :(  I will miss her greatly!  She is growing up so fast, this morning she had put on her new earnings and some aquaphor on her chapped lips and she looked so grown up.......but a beautiful and bright, caring, young lady she is!!  We just love her to pieces.  She loves to say her prayers, and is really sensitive to others.  Every night at dinner she prays, "to bless and nurith" our food. It's so cute to hear kids pronounce words the way they have heard them, and listen to what comes out.  She is also cruising along in karate.  She earned her first black tip on her white belt two weeks ago, and is so very proud of herself.  She works really hard and loves to practice!
