Almost there

'Today I will be driven by my goals, not my ego' Dr Lew Losoncy

End of school is near.  I can't get over how quickly the year has flown by.  It won't be long until the insanely hot days of summer are here and gone.

The kids are both playing baseball and soccer this year.  Tonight is my daughter's first soccer game.  She had a rough go at her first baseball game, she was pretty nervous.  Last night she played again (I missed it because of work) but from the report I got from her and her Dad she did fantastic!  She hit the ball every time at bat, and even once over everyone's head into the outfield!! Woo Hoo!  She also pitched and did a great job with that too.  I expect her teammates and coach were pleasantly surprised.  My son is enjoying baseball and soccer too.  He stands heads taller than all his teammates.  His league is called mosquito and each kid gets a chance to bat every inning and to run the bases.  It is more about learning than competition.

Tonight I will be meeting my niece and nephew for the first time.  My brother-law and his wife arrived earlier this week and are staying until Tuesday.  We will be visiting for the weekend.

(I forgot to finish this post....oops)

So we had a wonderful visit with my brother in law and family.  My niece and nephew are absolutely adorable and I love them to bits.  Ya no surprise there.  I also had a great time visiting with their parents  :D  The last night that I was there we girls (the sisters in law) and one of the cousin in law went on a haunted walk in the nearby city.  It was a lot of fun, just us girls.  I wish we didn't live so far away.....well that they live so far away.  BC is so far from Ontario.   It was great to finally meet my niece and nephew.

There was some sad new brought also.  My husband's grandmother has severe osteoporosis she is in a lot of pain and if she coughs too hard could break something.  I wish we could afford for my hubby and the kids to fly out to see her.  She is 89 years old and my hubby and his 1 brother are her only relatives left.  SShe hasn't met our kids and it would be so wonderful for her to meet them.

Who knows what the future will hold.


Cheers
