Saturday mornings

When Lily was a baby, we spent Saturday mornings having breakfast in a cafe.

Little girls would come in wearing their soccer jersey's, shin guards, and ponytails.

D and I melted at the sight of them.

I am thrilled, our baby has grown into

 one of those soccer girls.

With a jersey, (the best!) ponytail, and a game face.

 

 I love spending Saturday mornings

on the soccer field, cheering her on.

 

We go about town and strangers

come up to her and say

"Hey, I saw you play soccer Saturday,

 good game!"

This happened twice last week. 

Can you believe it?

Lily, the local celebrity athlete!

I beam with Pride and Joy!

When I grow up, I want to be Lily Lowe.
