I am feeling utterly disappointed, frustrated and betrayed. I am having an inner struggle as to how I should handle a recent disappointment that really is not even my disappointment but my daughters.
Kateland, after working so hard on her soccer team this year, going through tryouts again, found out yesterday that she got demoted to the team under the one she has been on for the last year. She was really disappointed and she also felt betrayed. My get along with everyone, tries as hard as she can and always does the best she can daughter, got demoted.
I know I am really whining. Does this seem like the end of the world? No! Will this make her a stronger player? Probably! I know things can be much worse! And she does have some things she needs to work on.
On the outside I want to say yeah great, everything is fine, everything is going to be okay and that this is all a part of life. But another part of me wants to say, "Your loss, I hope your new goalie stinks and that you realize you have made a big mistake."
Fine attitude for me to have huh? I really feel guilty for feeling this way but it's honest.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference.

I am so sorry Nichole...to both you and Kateland. I know it's frustrating. I am praying that God's will would be brought out of this -- He surely has a purpose.
Love you!
Ugggggggggggggggggg Man this makes me upset too. I am so sorry Kateland, man it makes me want to give you a big hug and just sit in silence. Nichole I am sorry :( You have been such a great mom; bring Kateland to all of her games and encouraging her and helping her know how to speak up. You have made huge sacrifices for her to be able to even play with this league. I am praying for you too. And know that surely something good will come out of this.
I'm sit a little upset though! :)
