Jack's 1st Official Soccer Practice

Jack has been waiting for his chance to hit the field as an actual participant and not just some crazy kid whose parents can't control him at his big sister's soccer game. He finally got that chance. Dave's PC team runs a league called "Little Bears" and this was Jack's first practice. He did just what we've always thought he would- took the ball and ran with it! He had so much fun. We had a hard time getting him to quit. In fact, he was out there long after practice ended, kicking the ball with some of the big boys.

A Conversation Between Two Sisters...

I was upstairs working on my sharing time lesson, when I heard the following conversation take place between Dakota and Rian. I anticipated a fight, but the conversation took a different turn. You probably had to be there to get the whole effect of it. But as you read it, be sure to sound very "know it all" in Dakota's voice, and fade those "R"'s Rian's.

Dakota: "Sometimes I can't believe you're my sister. Not because you're mean or I don't like you, but because you have red hair."

Rian: "You don't like my hair?"

Dakota: "No, I like it. Its just that I'm the only kid with brown hair. You and Jack both have red hair."

Rian: "Well, my hair isn't red, it's strawberry."

Dakota: "Strawberries are red, aren't they?"

Rian: "True."
