Kendra-I had a horrible nightmare! The cougars were exercising.
Me- what do you mean exercising?
Kendra- They were running ALL around!

Me- Kendra how was your day today?
Kendra- Mama, I have something to tell you... somebody fell in love with me at school today. He says when we grow up we can go to Las Vegas and get married. I wrote my number on paper for him so his mommy can call you. I really want to have a play date with him. Please say yes mama!
~Later the same day....
Isaiah- Kendra how was school today?
Kendra- Saiah- I have something to tell you... there's a boy at school... but we aren't old enough... but he accidentally fell in love with me. I told him he is NOT allowed to try to kiss me!
-Isaiah and I are now discussing adopting a big brother for her so this does not go any further.

Kendra is starting soccer this week- YES, I am now officially a soccer mom! So we went and bought all of her soccer gear. Cleats (black and pink), soccer ball (pink), shin guards (pink), uniform and fancy soccer socks (blue and white). I splurged and also got her the matching blue bow for her uniform. (It's the cheerleader in me- can't help myself). We got home and after I googled, how to wear shin guards, we got her dressed properly for some soccer. We hiked down the street to an open field and kicked the ball around. Kendra picked things up very quickly, and I know she will be a wonderful soccer player. She is also very "coachable". I told her she needs to kick with both feet. She looks at me and jumps up and hits the ball with both feet at once! =) Not exactly what I meant, but she's getting there!

Yesterday on her way to "Aunt Abby's" she snuck on her shin guards and cleats because she wanted to bring them over to her house. This morning by about 9:00 shin guards are on again, quite the fashion statement! We had to talk about her not being able to wear her cleats to school, we will see how that goes.
