From Cartoon Network to Basketball

As summer rolled in, we enrolled our little boy for a summer basketball clinic.  It's not a school based program but it's being done in my son's previous school.  Their program combines basic basketball skills thru drills and application of the skills thru a real game, they even had a tournament half way through the clinic.

He's one of the youngest in the clinic, and one of the most involved.  If before the clinic, he liked basketball, right now, he's crazy about basketball.  Crazy enough that he no longer watches as much Cartoon Network, but shifts to NBA :D

The little boy isn't the best of the players... yet :P But he's learned a lot and he's become more active.  He's made new friends and basketball has taught him teamwork, discipline and following rules.  I'm sure this won't be the last summer clinic he'll join, in fact, he's interested to join throughout the school year.  I'm a bit hesitant though since he'll be starting in a new school and he'll be Grade 1.  We can look it up again next summer.

It's the end of summer as we know it

Summer has officially ended, by the last week of April. Imagine that? We seriously need to think about Global warming.

I hate skipping a good sunny day at the beach. Crossing my fingers and praying for a trip to the beach soon! Please.

Working while facing the rain

I was working from home today. Before when we didn't have a router, I work from our computer room where my PC was facing the wall. Thank God for routers, I'm able to work anywhere in our (little) house.

So today, I worked from our bedroom, beside my little one. I also worked from our dining table, which faces a window. And since it was raining, I was working facing the rain. It is such a great respite from facing the wall, from work itself, and from the summer heat as well.

Well, thank God for summer rains :)
