These 6 special girls make up The Bunnies. Twice a week, we get together to play soccer. Sometimes, I am the coach. Most of the time, the collective will of the girls is the coach. When we gather as a team, I enjoy being reminded that, often, the obvious goal (in this case…playing soccer) is not why we gather. We gather to become better listeners. We gather to share stories about Kindergarten. We gather to take turns. We gather to let other adults teach us stuff. We gather to laugh. Sometimes, we gather to play soccer.

And so it is with all things. The purpose behind what we do might not be what we think it should. I want to thank The Bunnies for a great season. We had fun and learned a lot, and only some of it involved soccer.
