The only thing (and this was a BIG thing for her) that she absolutely hated, was the fact that her uniform was WAY TOO BIG!! After many tears and fits, I got it on her and she'd look in the mirror and say, "this does NOT look pretty on me!" Honestly, the tee came down to her knees and the shorts came down almost to her ankles and the black wool socks went up to her thighs. What are these people thinking?!? 4yr olds do not wear the same size as 10 yr olds!! But after some minor adjustments, it fit better. 
Anyways, after 6 wonderful and fun weeks, tonight it came to an end. Oh wait, let me tell you Ana did NOT like the game "Shark vs. Fish". Let me explain. The coaches (sharks) line up across the field from all the kids (fishes). The 'sharks' try to steal the ball away from the 'fishes'. They did this many times, going back and forth across the lines until only a 
few 'fishes' were left. Ana was really good at dribbling the ball and keeping it close to her as to not get it taken away by the 'sharks'. BUT...here's the sad part...and this only happened 2 times....the shark TOOK ANA'S SOCCER BALL and you know what?....she CRIED!!! She stood there in the middle of the field in a pile of tears! Tad & I felt a little sad, but we just had to laugh inside our hearts cause that's the game of life, isn't it. She was a good sport though, wiped her tears away, drank some water and she ran back out onto the field. Way to go Ana! Next time you take on those sharks and you fight your way through the sea of sharks!!! hahaha! :-)All the kids got these beautiful gold medals! She wore it very proudly and she's bringing it to daycare tomorrow to show all the kids. At the end, we always get a treat and play at the adjacent park. Here she is relaxing. Until next session......
