I am playing soccer again! I cannot believe how much I am enjoying it. I was asked to play on an indoor team one night because they were desperate for girls (co-ed team). I said, "If you really are desperate. I haven't played in like 13 years and I have not exercised in a long time!" Well, they were desperate and so I played. It was exhilarating to me!!! I was asked to join the team afterwards, and so I guess I did okay!!
My husband was very happy for my happiness and now I am on the team! What is so funny to me is how tired I was. It was like my brain would say "Go after that ball! But my legs were like jello and just couldn't do it!" The first game there were no subs for the girls. I was the only girl until we picked up some girls that were there waiting for their game. But after a few games, my stamina has gotten better or rather I have learned how to pace myself better and not run extremely hard the whole time if Iwant to make it throught the whole game.
I look forward to the next game all week! I love how the Lord brought this new joy into my life unexpectedly.
My girls love to watch me play, too, and now they have talked about getting on a team! That would be fun!
