Dominique's soccer goals this week in video

OK, it's in little itty bitty video and you really can't see much of anything, especially if you can't spot her in the crowd. I'm hoping we will be able to get a new camera with zoom capabilities soon- this one was damaged by our little soccer extraordinaire. It's funny that she can actually kick the ball and run, but often trips over her feet when just walking, or standing, such as was the case the day she fell with the camera.


The ball drizzled to the goal. I would have swept the grass like crazy if it would have helped (and was allowed), as it was, I yelled instead, which seems to have scared that ball into the net.


I missed her best dancing by the goal line where she looked as big as an ant onscreen.



it helps quite a bit when none of the other kids are actually trying or interfering with her dart across the field, she eventually got it to the goal and kicked it in, as seen in the next shot


we all thought the ball had gone out of play, but Dominique had kept moving it toward the goal and got it in under all of our noses- then did her gloating dance. Brian now admits this may be his doing since they were practicing soccer this week and he demonstrated the gloating dance.


Did you play sports growing up? If so what?

I played in the GAA, the Girls Athletic Asso. We played baseball, volleyball, basketball and soccer. It was a blast. Keep the sports going Dominique! Nana can't walk across a room with stumbling. Does clutsiness run in the genes?

Just read a study that stated that intelligence was passed down on the female side with the X chromosome.
Not sure about clutsiness, though.

Dominique certainly seems to get the concept of the game well
