I'm officially a Soccer Mom!
Ainsley had her first soccer practice on Saturday. She loved it, even though it was insanely humid and she was hot, sweaty and tired by the end.
She and her friend Emily ended up on the same team. There were about 50 4-5 year olds there. They were just broken into teams to scrimmage and learn basics, I don't believe there will be any real games. I'll let you know.
It was great watching her concentrate so hard. She is really starting to grow up. She was listening to what the coach said and trying very hard to do it just right. Just a few months ago, she would have been off doing her own thing.
Doesn't she look like a natural? Uncle Jim what do you think of her form?
In other news, we'd appreciate prayers as we make a decision about Josh's job. He may transfer to another (read, farther away) location, but his job would be more secure there. He is most likely going to be laid off sometime after the first of the year if he stays where he is. The problem is, he'd have to travel farther (he'd need a different car), he would be on second shift and his job would be boring... but he'd make more money and his job would be secure... with the possibility of changing shifts in the next few months and even returning to his current work location hopefully in a few years... So, we have a lot to think and pray about.

I'll be praying for you guys. Those sorts of decisions can be so hard to make sometimes.
Ainsley is so precious and looking quite older now that she's a school girl and soccer player!
RYC---Yeah, tell Josh that the grape juice was AW.FUL. LOL I leaned over and told Rich that I thought someone poisoned my communion cup. What brand was that? They should be called and a complaint filed! LOL LOL
She does look like a pro!! My girls play soccer to & she looks like she knows what she is doing:) I will be praying for you with Josh's job. It can be very stressful making sure you make the right decision for him, you & your family. I had to laugh at Shanda's comment about the grape juice the last time we had communion my grape juice didn't taste the greatest either:)
How adorable is she with her little pig tails and shin guards! Looks like she is having the time of her life.
Ill be praying for your guys big descion. We always ask God to close tight all the wrong doors, and open wide all the right ones. I will be praying the same for you!
