A Trophy

For the last year or so, Abby has occasionally mentioned how she wished more than anything that she could win a trophy. She was obsessed at the idea of having a trophy on her shelf. "If only I could win something....", she would say, as I would roll my eyes and laugh. Well, I am happy to say her dream has finally come true. She has....won?....a trophy.

At the last soccer game of the year, one of the moms, showed up with trophies for all the girls inscribed with "Pink Princesses 2009". (Apparently her daughter had the same trophy obsession as Abby.) The coach played it off that they "won" them for being such an awesome team. The girls were so excited. Abby insisted on it being displayed in the living room so everyone who came over could see it.
