Soccer Boyfriends

All of the girls in our house (except Carys for now) have a soccer boyfriend. What is a soccer boyfriend? Just a soccer player who they think is really cute.

Benay's is Kaká. He plays for Real Madrid.Bronwyn's is Danny Morais. He plays for Internacional so she gets to see him in person.
Ansley's is a player named Nilmar. He played for Inter until about a month ago. We sold him to a team in Spain. You might remember him from a blog that we did of an incredible goal he made.

Nilmar is the main reason why Ansley is now a soccer fan.

It's been rough year for Ansley. First Nilmar had the nerve to marry someone other than Ansley... ...and then Inter shipped him off to Spain (Brasilian teams always need the money .

Now he plays on the seleção and he made three goals in one game on Wednesday night. Ansley was excited. (Except for the fact that after each goal, he made an "L" symbol with his hand for his wife, Laura. Ansley said "He should be making an "A"!) He probably will be on the World Cup team next year. He keeps getting better.

Even though it's been hard for Ansley to say goodbye she can at least hold on to this memory from their time together about this time last year. They had a short lived romance. It only lasted 5-10 seconds outside of the stadium and we all thought it had potential - but it wasn't meant to be.
