What Esther did next (with added Freya)

Time to get back on the horse and bring y'all up to date.
We have been back in TP for over a month, but what a month, there have been changes...of which more in future posts.
This post is all about E and a few of her recent highlights.
Esther has just been bought by Ashburton United for $3,000,000. This is a record fee for an under-7 player but I think she's worth every cent.
She scores goals you know!

Providing support for her team mate, as is every other player on the pitch! Watching these games is so joyous...and hilarious. I smile loads on Sunday mornings but have to remember to keep my inner "soccer mom" in check...found myself yelling "REF!" last Sunday as some 5 year old kid pulled on the shirt of a United player!

Half-time huddle

Is there a cuter soccer star? Hmm, let me answer my own question: Lucas Neill is a total cutie. So let me re-phrase...Is there a cuter under-7 girl soccer star? Answer: NO!
Esther is a Rainbow Guide, which I think is what they call Brownies these days and has nothing to do with the LBGT community. Last week was her Promise Ceremony, a big deal in Guide-life. She had her promise down pat. I was 100% chuffed, E was 200% chuffed.
Esther's Brown Owl is lovely. I was a Brownie for about 3 weeks, I can't remember my Brown Owl but I recall that Barn Owl and her daughter were a couple of b!$&hes, hence only being a Brownie for 3 weeks.

Proud little Rainbow :)

Already working on her cake-decorating badge!
You were promised a bit of Freya, here she is:
Getting all maternal with Stinky-Roo, the joey that her friend M is raising.

  1. What a super star, I think the current England team could do with her skills in the European Cup. It seems odd to see football played under clear blue skies and not the rain sodden clouds we are used to here!
    The joey photo elicited a number of "aaaahs" from Lily and Noah.
    Love you lots
