Champions!

Aidan was on the junior football team this year and their team went undefeated all the way to the championship. Because it was his first year and he's one of the smallest guys on the team, he didn't get a lot of game time but he'll be ready next year. Great season, Colts!

Remembering 9/11

Yesterday was the 10 year anniversary of 9/11 and while we were driving to church, the boys and I had a discussion about what happened and how it changed the world. Aidan was not quite 2 years old so a lot of the details we were talking about were new to him.

He asked if the terrorists had guns or other weapons on the plane. He asked how they were even able to get them on the plane. He chastised airport security. That was when I realized that my children have always grown up with high airport security; that the only world they've known is one where the word terrorist is a part of their normal vocabulary and the possibility of being attacked in their own city is real.

I realize this and I hold my children a little closer to me.

Check out what we did at work to celebrate our 15th anniversary and to promote the launch of Canada Dance Week. If you missed this awesome show, there'll be an encore performance on Canada Day after the fireworks on the corner of George and Sussex. See you there!

Christmas Break Wrap Up

I didn't accomplish my goal during the break. I was only able to watch all 6 seasons of How I Met Your Mother during the break and catch up on Mad Men before the break. Being sick for the last few days of holidays helped me to focus and push to the finish line. I'm not going to give up though. Now that we have to get back into our daily routine, I'll just watch an episode or two from my list on the weekends. With a little perseverance, I know I can accomplish my goal. Slow and steady wins the race and when I do, it's going to be legend...wait for it...dary.
