This is the soccer practice that showed just how tough Arianna is. Only 5 kids showed up and Arianna was the only girl. It was COLD - very cold, windy, and rainy. All the parents ran for their cars and watched from across the field. Dad and Angie watched from the minivan. I stood there a bit, but the wind picked up and the rain got heavier, so I ran to the van too. Arianna stayed out and practiced the entire hour and didn't complain once. She ran back to the van at break time to get her water, then ran back to practice. I was so proud of her. She's really enjoying soccer now and is learning a lot of self-discipline.
