Score!!!!


Two Saturdays ago Wilson scored his first goal in a Lacrosse game. He's having a fun season. Understanding the game better, and feeling more confident has really made the game more fun for him. He told me after the game, " Mom, its so much more fun when you know what your doing". Lacrosse is a new sport for us; last year was our first year. I'm still trying to figure out rules and what a "mittie" is. The games are pretty exciting, and I find I can't stop yelling. Reminds me of my old soccer coaching days, yelling @ the boys "SCORE"!

Skipping February

Well, the month of February came and went. I tried to think of something super interesting to blog but life is moving along in its normal way and that month just swept by. We have had "supposedly" a mild winter, and the ground hog was wrong for Seattle b/c spring has begun. Our cherry blossoms have bloomed, and it looks like pink snow when the tiny flowers fall. Bulbs are up and blooming and I have bright pink flowers on some kind of shrub/tree by my door. We've had some beautiful sunny days, and I cannot tell you how wonderful it is for my mood. It's like liquid vitamin D for my soul. I get so excited about the seasons coming, because spring, summer and fall are just beautiful here. People change almost overnight when the sun comes out...people smile as they walk down the street with their dogs, more bicycle riders are out and commuting again, and the day light is longer to enjoy. This for me is great, because on my work days I can actually get through the day seeing no daylight at all in the winter. Well, blessings to all, I have my sweet Annie-Grace home from school today for parent teacher conference week, and we are headed out to enjoy some liquid vitamin D!
