Today Beatrice had her first day of soccer through the Burbank Parks and Recreation department; she'll be going Friday evenings at 5pm at Jordan Middle School. Not surprisingly, she absolutely loves it (as she has loved ballet, gymnastics, art, swimming, music, and every other thing she has ever tried - her new preschool teacher Mr. Richard recently commented that she is "extremely enthusiastic").
Beatrice makes a goal
We arrived a few minutes early for B's first lesson while another class was still winding up. Before I could stop her, B ran out onto the field shouting, "THIS IS SPORTS!"
"This is sports!"
We finally got her a little more focused, and by the end she was doing pretty well.
The entire way home all she talked about goals, dribbling, Coach Jason, and how there are "no hands in soccer."
Dev went out on the field to help Beatrice (B is in the beginner class which includes parental involvement; when she turns 3.5 she'll be out on the field on her own).
Meanwhile Arthur and I had fun watching and photographing from the sidelines.

Personally, I just like being outside on fall evenings. And because I usually make crockpot meals on Fridays, when we got home at 6pm we already had dinner waiting for us.
B was very impressed by her "Kidz Love Soccer" hand stamp
