officially quitters -- at least for now!

{if I'm not happy, ain't nobody happy -- you got that?}

Just a quick update: we have decided to take a break from soccer for the foreseeable future. Summer is too short for tears. We plan to fill the void with picnics, park visits and our 24 inch pool (jealous?). Those things make us all happy. When you are three years old and it is the summertime, being happy is the goal.

I have finally accepted I may not be the mother of a future Olympic soccer player (there are lots of other sports, don't worry). And yes, I am obviously already planning to blame anything that goes wrong in Violet's life on our decision to let her quit soccer. It is the only rational thing to do ;)
