Thursday afternoon, we were invited over to play by our 7-year-old neighbour. He was particularly excited about some miniature hockey nets he had recently purchased. S1 and S2 made a bee-line for the play house, and started preparing a series of pretend meals. S3, however said "a ball", ran to the makeshift playing field, expertly picked up a hockey stick, and chased the ball!
This did not overly surprise me because she:
-bounced her first ball at 9 months of age
-spoke the words "a ball" before she could say Mama and Papa
-insisted on joining in with much older kids playing soccer and street hockey
-has her own tennis racquet
Here is our little ball girl in the neighbour's basement:
