I was skeptical that she was doing anything but randomly booting the ball or maybe cheering a little from the sidelines, but when we actually played in the back yard, she wasn&#8217;t bad!  So when she said she wanted to do a soccer camp this summer, I said okay.  She&#8217;s signed up for &#8220;Soccer FUNdamentals&#8221; next week.<\/p>\n<p>They required us to get shinguards, so we stopped by a sporting goods store to get some.  Then we realized we needed long socks to go over the shinguards.  And probably shoes would be a good idea.  Anyway, one thing led to another, and now we&#8217;ve got a little Mia Hamm running around the house, dressed in all the pink clothes she picked out.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, she now wears size 6 1\/2 girls shoes, which apparently translates to size 8 women&#8217;s.  She can now share footwear with my mother.  Thanks a lot, bigfooted husband.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s our budding soccer star.  If she enjoys it, maybe she can play for my alma mater UNC one day!
