Little fish
My title has a dual purpose.
1) Jay is still in the water (as far as I know!) and on schedule to arrive in TO at 10pm, though they changed the landing location to the Leslie St. Spit due to the Humber Current. His landing point is now 5km from a parking lot and I don't think he's going to be up for walking after the swim. I'm sure they have planned alternative measures...
Keep up with his trek on the website Swimming Blue
2) James is at a soccer camp with guys who are really good. James is now a little fish in a big pond. (on his U6 team, I think he is a big fish) This has de-notched him a little, but the kid has real determination. He played for 3 hours straight this morning and when I came to pick him up he was flopped down on a hammock almost asleep. When I told my office mate about James being de-notched, he indicated that this was a good thing as he would be more prepared for university. Yes, I start university preparation at 6.
After I picked him up from soccer, we stopped at Karen's house for James to watch a promised soccer game BUT it turned out she didn't get the station that it was on, so that was no good, but james had fun in other ways- watching some off road racing and playing with her garden hose (not at the same time). We came home, I made a chicken stir fry and now he's off to soccer again.
I made some more frogs (it's becoming a habit)- anytime I make them or eat them, I now think of Kelly saying that this is how frogs are supposed to taste before she even tasted one and I laugh. I love her faith in me!
