Today she wore her first single French braid! I don't think this milestone is mentioned in most parenting books, but I both appreciate some variety in my braiding tasks and think of this as a pretty grown-up thing. After all, I wore my hair this way to my wedding!
And after school today, she had her first soccer practice--and scored a goal during the scrimmage. Most important, she thought it was a lot of fun.
This is what Nathan did during the soccer practice. He's been a good sport, and we've had a lot of fun together, but he does miss Rachel a lot when she's gone. Today he asked repeatedly what she was doing at school at that moment, and when we picked her up, he chattered on to her all about his (very thrilling--it included grocery shopping) day. He had obviously been thinking about her quite a bit. Tomorrow it will be his turn to go to school and have experiences of his own!
