Haiku Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 Thanks, everyone. The kids and I went to see my mom today, and it makes me feel really good to come home and see all your kind responses. :grouphug: Tara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momsquared Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 My son was adopted from an orphanage as an "older child." He has behavioral, learning, and health challenges. He is the nicest child you will ever meet, but he is very hard to live with. I love him dearly, but he regularly frustrates me. My son is 8 years old and is goalie for a Squirt (9/10 year old) hockey team. He was asked to "play up" this year, his second year of playing hockey, because he is such a good goalie. We put him in hockey last year because my daughter's team didn't have enough kids when registration ended. We figured he'd kinda be a placeholder, a warm body to give the team enough kids. My son busted out with this incredible skill as goalie. My son is called The Brick Wall. My son had a 15-0 shutout this weekend. That's all. :D Tara What an amazing story. We are hockey believers. It has changed my DD's life. I would pay whatever it takes to keep her playing. What bliss. We are Panthers too BtW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhschool Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Tell him you are SO PROUD of him! (But also tell him that you would love him just the same if he weren't any good at hockey.) BUT...yay for him! I thought your post was going to be about some problem, but then it was about his great skill--and I got all happy!
