Orange Crushes


Lily joined soccer again this year. The Sunday before soccer began I was fixing Lily’s hair when she told me “it’s time for me to be getting serious.” I wondered what she meant and she explained that she needed to get serious about playing soccer because her first game was on Tuesday.

True to her word, she has taken it serious. She has had a successful couple of weeks – even scoring a few goals! This is a big turn around from last year’s attitude when she just wanted treats and the cool shirt. We are proud of our little “Orange Crush”. (team name)

Her soccer coach is Brian Howard – same as last year. She loves being on the same team as Grace and Gretta Michaelson, Sam Howard and of course cousin Taylor Ricks!

Way to go Lily. It’s good to be part of a team and help others reach their goals too. Where’s Taylor?
