Marmot Sports

The first day of Spring was also Madame 5-yr-old's first day of soccer. Tiny child soccer is hilarious.

Madame was very serious about her soccer. She wore a deeply concerned expression on her face throughout the practice. Her little neighbor boy friend is also on the team. He hops across the field like a tiny gazelle boy.

Tuey and my sister and I watched from the sidelines while Madame 3-yr-old and Marmot Dad were at the playground. Tuey sat on my lap and exclaimed (repeatedly) over the amazing treat of seeing so many soccer balls and babies all in the same place. Tuey Heaven. (Look at that gorgeous blue sky!)

Eventually, Tuey wanted to get in on the action. He told us, gick, gick! (kick! kick!) and then demonstrated his gicking technique, a sort of foot sliding into this wide-legged stance.

Are you saying that you want something more from heaven than lots of balls? You may be disappointed.
