Molly Our Football Star
I have a football star in my family.
She is my granddaughter and she is thirteen.
A girly-girl when she is not playing defense.
A grizzly bear when she is playing on defense.
I will not get to see her play because I work
And her games start at 3:30 unless I take an hour off my work.
Her next game is her last game. I am debating...
I hear she is really good from my husband who was shocked
Last Thursday that a football game lasts two full hours.
He is not sports-oriented but got a kick out of it this time
Because he is related to a star player, the lone female player.
So did you picture her built like a tank?
She is built like a giraffe with super skinny
Tall legs. It is the beginning of eighth grade so
Of course she is still a head taller than the rest of the team- all boys.
