USWNT Texas Game Day Almost Here!!!

This Thursday my daughters soccer team will be traveling to Frisco, TX. to watch the United States Women's National Team play against Russia.  What is unusual about this game is that it is on a Thursday.  That's right, a school night.  The girls will get out of school early on Thursday and miss school on Friday because we will not have time to get back in time as Frisco is about five hours away from our home.

Yes, school is very important to me but I think to see the best soccer players that the United States has to offer is also an important learning experience.  I think anytime you get the chance to see someone who is the best in their field, you should take it.  These young girls need role models that they can look up to and see that it is possible to achieve anything as long as you put in the hard work.  Most of the girls on my daughters team will not play past high school but I am not about to squash anybody's dream because I do not know the future.

USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!
