Silly Soccer Guy

Just a quick little thought tonight. It's been a real struggle to get Liam, my 3 year old to play soccer at all with his soccer team. The past few weeks he hasn't wanted to go on the field or really even associate with the other kids.

Well, this proud Momma is happy to say tonight things turned around. My silly little punk all the sudden decided yes indeed he does like soccer & he knows what to do. He was the winner of the "Player of the Game" award.

Now this may not sound too exciting for a "thankful moment" but it really is. I was considering bowing out of soccer the rest of the season because he really didn't seem to like it. I'm glad...thankful we went to soccer tonight & that Liam had fun! The award was just the icing on the cake.

"Speed. I am Speed"

Yup and today speed is going to cost me because I got a speeding ticket! That is how this fabulous day started for me.

Yes I know my own fault! In my opinion it was really not necessary to pull me over. I mean I was in the middle of nowhere driving to one of our satellite offices, minding my own business! All of the sudden the friendly passer by driving in the oncoming lane just happened to be a cop. I knew I was in trouble when she did a u-turn.

It is rather difficult to draw a thankful moment in this incident, but I think I can manage. I'm thankful I didn't get caught driving any faster. I'm very thankful all the right paperwork was in the van, since we did just transfer the ownership. There I did it...now that's it.

Oh and I will be leaving earlier so my lead foot can take a break!

Oh dear...it's been awhile

Consistency, I can't say it's always my strong point. I mean well but don't always follow through long term. My plan for this blog was to write a little snippet of something I'm thankful for everyday; as you can see it started off great, but I've been lacking a little recently.

Here is something I'm strong with, never giving up! Although it would be easy to abandon this little project, I'm going to carry on & get back at it!

On that note, this week we celebrated Canada Day; our wee little family went camping & enjoyed our time together. It's definitely something I'm thankful for, being Canadian & having a little family to celebrate that with.
