    Love your page Em! So cute. And Heather’s page really spoke to me!
    Competive sports – oh yeah! All three of my girls were in soccer and bowling. It’s the parents that drove me crazy. One year the soccer club for girls about 8 – 10 had to have a restraining order against one of the fathers so he could not be near the field where his daughter was playing because he was so verbally abusive to her and the other players. Sad!

    OOOOHHHHHHH! Image transfers!! I LOVE IMAGE transfers! Can’t wait to see what shows up next week!!
    When it comes to kids and sports some parents are just insane! My daughter was in a skills soccer club ( not a competative one) when she was 6 and there was one dad who used to push his daughter to the extreme. Nothing she did was ever right or good enough, and she always had such a sad despondent look on her face at 6 years old! Her dad was a policeman ( which I found hard to believe) and every week I wanted to go over to him and scream in his face Can you not see what you are doing to your kid??? I settled for giving the girl realistic compliments every time she did something right, and praising her for trying and having the courage to try and try again. And I pretended I didn’t see her dads looks of irritation directed at me when I was giving her these encouraging words! I really don’t get some parents. The world is hard enough parents and home should be a place of understanding and sanctuary.
