Girls Rugby


All my girls play rugby on the weekends. I love their dedication to the team and their feistiness on the field. 
I don't like their injuries or the concussion!
However after the game when they are all around the kitchen table comparing stories and injuries and painting themselves with iodine it is all forgotten, and I revel in their shared sisterhood.

I agree - it's wonderful to see girls (women) come together and celebrating life. (Actually it is great to see anyone celebrating life.) I didn't even know females played rugby! Wonderful!!

I agree-It is great to see young women out there using up some aggression instead of being told to 'act ladylike'!

Great photograph...and what wonderful news for your daughter! Big changes happening for your family...it's always a bittersweet event when a child leaves home. You're so happy for them...but, it tugs on the heartstrings.
