January 27: I can't even tell you HOW PLEASED I was to learn that Kaity-Jane was going to play indoor SOCCER!!! Megan, Kenzie's mom (Kenzie pictured below) suggested it to Diana and Diana said YES!

This is Kaitlynn and her best friend, Kenzie!
Aren't they darling? |
So Kaity-Girl and Kenzie are on the same team (even though they are a year apart) and they couldn't be happier about it.
Their first official game was Saturday morning over at the high school. Kaity was SO PROUD to be at the high school actually participating in a sport rather than just watching.
Kaity almost never stops moving. You should have seen her on that court. She was 100% happy. She was hopping and skipping and jumping ... all while running ... and occasionally it looked like she was actually FLYING.
It was so much fun to be there and watch sweet Kaity in her element. She did a very good job listening to her coach and following the rules.
Almost every single one of the children, however, were somewhat "lost in space" as far as the actual game was concerned. No one seemed very certain which direction to kick the ball (!!) and it was pretty much "organized chaos" in perpetual motion. I loved every single second and I think I laughed harder than I have in many months.
Each child got a turn being goalie. Watch Kaity here ... doesn't she crack you up? Here comes the soccer ball, headed right for the goal ... and what does Kaity do?
!!! I love it.
But I WILL tell you, not one goal was scored against Kaity's team while she was goaling.
I'm so thankful for this for Kaity. This is SO GOOD for her.
Dear, dear Kaity. Grandma loves you SO much. Thank you, Jesus, for this little bundle of energy and love.
