Ash wanted to play soccer this year. So far we’re having a bit of trouble finding a club where she can play, as the first one couldn’t field an under 15s girls’ team and the second one may have too many players (for two teams), but she played a practice match with them today anyway. She looked pretty good out there, however may be just a bit _too_ nice to play soccer – she didn’t want to run into anyone. Her loving brother has offered to run into her and hit her on a regular basis to toughen her up a bit. Hmmm … feel the love!
