***Soccer Hair***
It was the first Saturday of Soccer for our little Ella. It is Micro-Soccer... for the little ones ages 3 to 5. We got all the gear on (which takes long enough to have it's own story) and then SHe was ready. Except for her hair, that is. She generally doesn't like to have me touch her hair because it "hurts." But, when she wants to look nice, she is very specific. I put two pony tails in as I was instructed to do. Then, she requested ribbons. I pulled out a couple of pink ones...
Ella complained about the ribbons,"No, Mom! Those do not match."
"Well, sweetheart, we do not have any that will match, but these will still look cute." I persuaded.
She disappeared and I was off to the next child who needed prepared to leave.
Suddenly Ella popped up right in front of me ecstatic at her discovery...
"Mom! Mom! Mom!" (Why do they always have to say my title a minimum of three times, I do not know!) "I found ones that match!"
She proceeded to tell me of her idea to take the ribbons out of her tap shoes that are black to put in her hair because she was mainly wearing black. This girl will do what it takes and be as creative as she needs to so she can pull of the look. I think watching High School Musical for 6 days straight the first week of school is taking its toll!
One of the best parts was that during one of the games, one of her ribbons had fallen out of her hair. So, she stopped playing and made her coach (male) attempt to tie her ribbon back in her hair as the game proceeded to be played around them! She cracks us all up!
