Over the last couple of years I have slowly implemented my plan (muh-ha-ha-ha) starting with getting my kids to watch soccer with me on television.
Now, I'm happy to report I am well into phase 2: Molding a partner in crime to watch professional soccer games -- live.
It's become our Mama and KT time to drive into L.A. to watch the Galaxy play.
I was a little nervous the first time as I know football games around the world can be a little "rough" and not necessarily somewhere you want to take a six-year old.
But, they have a lot right up KT's alley. We get there early and get her face painted.
She gets an airbrushed tattoo. She makes signs.
We take pictures with the mascot, the MLS cup trophy, spin the different wheels at the sponsors booths for tchotchkes.
Sometimes David Beckham is her favorite player.
Sometimes it's Landon Donovan.
We get dirty nachos and an Icee.
Just love that happy face.
