A thought for the day from the world of coaching girls soccer, with thanks to a colleague at Northwestern Medicine in Chicago.
After a soccer game between two teams of seven-year-old girls:
Frustrated coach: Your heads were just not in the game! Where were they?
Player: I was thinking about princesses and puppies.

Tanya Lane Martinez I always get a kick out of the random cartwheels throughout the games.
