We have said many times that Rachel has a great balance of being a girly girl and a tomboy, only time will tell which will dominate in her future. Her preschool will come to a close at the end of May, so we have been researching what summer programs we can enroll her in. We have narrowed it down to a dance class or a soccer class. She loves to dress up and dance around the house, but she also loves to be outside kicking the ball and running around. We decided to let her choose. We asked -"Rachel, do you want to dance with your friends or play soccer with your friends?" She thought about for a little bit and said "I want to kick the soccer ball with my friends." So that is it. We will enroll her in the Soccer Tots program this summer. We took a trip to the dollar store today, and told Rachel she could pick out a toy. She chose a plastic yellow baseball bat and ball. She was so excited and ran to the backyard as soon as we got home.


She is a natural! She can not only hit the ball, but does pretty good at pitching, and of course she loves to pose for the camera.
