Look out!
2.....3.....4
Love a group photo!Soccer is well underway and the Wilson's love it....even mom and dad! Usually we can be seen running from one field to the next because typically 2 of the games overlap. Fortunately, the fields are usually close together. Cade is a real scoring machine.....I can't get over how hard he plays, how fast he is, and how determined his facial expressions are. It's really amazing to watch, and I'm not just saying that as his mom, really, I'm not! Gracie isn't as fast as Cade but she is so agile, graceful, and good w/ her feet. Her league is more competitive so she has to work a little harder to get the ball in the goal. And then there's sweet Halle. She is such a coachable kid! She says every game "well, it's much harder in my age group to score, it's more competitive." Smart, she is! Halle is less aggressive, and not quite sure of the sport. She doesn't really 'hunt' the ball down like the other two, but one beauty of a girl she is! She enjoys soccer, and that's all that matters to me!
At night, when it's finally quiet, I love thinking about how unique they each are in their own special way. Cade: high on life, always making somebody laugh, and spends hours with a ball in his hand, either throwing it up in the air and diving into the couch OR making plays in the yard. Gracie......SO intuitive and worried about every little detail, yet physically strong, athletic, eager to please, and compassionate about what others think and loves to be praised! Her eyes can light up a room and boy does she look up to her big sister. And then there's Halle.....the leader, the oldest, could probably take care of them all while I went to work. Maturing so much and such a pleasure to always be around....Happy, caring, hard working, helpful. All different, but in good ways, independent--yet usually together. What a blessing it is to watch them grow up!
