Faith, Family, Fitness & Fun!: My No Frills Girl

In August of 2001 I finally got the little girl that I had waited so many years for in my life. I envisioned dolls, frills, ballet, piano, etc., etc. etc. Turns out, my little girl is an awesome little athlete and I am very proud of her! My granddaughter, Elizabeth Grace, is a great little softball and soccer player and can hold her own with any of the three little guys in our family! I am so proud of her. She is also very girlie in a lot of ways and I hope she stays that way. I have always told her to "play like a boy on the field and act like a girl when you come off!" I spent last night and all of today at her softball tournament and they are still in contention. She always gives her all and is very competitive.

In the coming weeks I will be spending most of my free time at ballparks since Gracie, Alex and Aaron will be playing in tournaments. I am just excited that they want to be active because I think it is so very important for kids to have something that keeps them moving around. In this day of modern technology it is way to easy to become a sedentary person early in life. I am so proud of all of them for doing their best and being rewarded with post-season play! I am looking forward to the rest of this summer! Hope you enjoy the pictures of my little ball players!
