Starting Early

Carly's 1st pair of soccer cleats...Hopefuly there are more to come!!!
Her 1st soccer ball!! Gotta Love the pink and black!!

These adorable soccer cleats were one of the first things I picked up for Carly. I saw them on one of my garage sale sprees and simply couldn't resist. I started playing when I was in high school and loved it! I wish I could have started sooner, but soccer wasn't big around here when i was younger. In fact, the high school didn't have a girls' team until my 8th grade year. I decided I'd give it a shot my freshman year. Oh and how I loved it! When our high school season was over I joined another league that traveled around a little to play in tournaments. It quickly became the center of my life. Of course, I would love for Carly to play....I mean I did buy the cleats months before she was born...but I know it doesn't always happen like that. She may decide to be a gymnast, a basketball player, a softball player (oh yeah), a cheerleader, a ballerina, an ice skater, a scholar....yes, the possibilities of what she may become are endless. But I know one thing for sure...if she follows her heart, I will be proud of her!! So, if that means I have to tote her around to ballerina classes than that is what I'll do!
