I went back to the foot doctor last week. Since he adjusted my dislocated foot the first time, I can barely walk, much less run. Well, the bone had slipped out again, so he adjusted it again. However, I had other symptoms. Mostly PAIN, but also numbness and cold left foot. [...]

So Summer, of all people, decided to try out for cheer! I was quite amused when I heard this due to the fact that all her life, she has gagged and rolled her eyes every time the word cheerleader has been mentioned. The thought of giggly girls in short skirts did not appeal [...]

Here is my first attempt at capturing Michelle in action (so be patient!). Here are just a few highlights from her first game, where she scored 5 goals! This quote I happened to find reminded me of Michelle’s performance in the game.
“You can’t just beat a team, you have to leave a lasting [...]

Aaron started wrestling in second grade with a club in Oak Harbor that was really good. He placed 5th in State his first year. Then we moved to Bellingham…wrestling is not as popular up here, so he stopped for a while. He picked up again in middle school. He had a [...]

EXTREME SPORTS: SIX YEAR OLD SNOW SOCCER, MARCH 29, 2008
The toughest athletes live in Whatcom County. I have heard in California they cancel games due to a little sprinkle. Not here…no one would ever get to play. We play through torrential downpours, in lake sized mud puddles, through fierce blowing winds, [...]
I Hope You Dance

Summer may not be an athlete, but she is a very graceful ballerina. At the beginning of this year, she was given permission to go on pointe. With my foot dislocated, I cannot even imagine dancing strictly on my toes. I honestly never thought Summer would go this far with dance. [...]

My visiting teachers came over today. I have not had regular visiting teachers who actually come over in…well I can’t remember the last time! They brought “Spring amidst the snow” in the form of flowers. I really, really, really love flowers, really. All kinds. Jeremy hardly ever buys me flowers, [...]

Last week, I needed a Family Home Evening Lesson on kind words. My lovely children have been snappy and rude to each other for several weeks, and it was hurting my heart. In turn, I was having negative feelings, and was probably short with them as well. That can really drive away [...]

This weekend was the kickoff to the Spring outdoor soccer season, and although I looked like I was going skiing (it was 32 degrees when we left the house), it was sunny and dry for the players. As mentioned before, Michelle’s soccer team is very good. They looked so good out there (these are [...]
