We are all connected

Today JJ learned about the shootings in Arizona.
He said to me, "mommy, all people are together."
I said, "I don't understand."
He said, "if I am bad to you, then I am bad to me."
I waited.
And he said, "If I hurt you, then I hurt me."

I had told him that all of us are connected. That if I hurt someone, then I am hurting myself. I guess you embraced that lesson.

Bruins Night

Tonight we went to see the Bruins versus the Minnesota Wild.

I have never heard of the Wild. They are either an expansion team or I have been buried in the sand more than I thought I have.

I could tell that you are getting more familiar and comfortable with the whole hockey scene.

You wanted your two hotdogs - one with mustard and one with ketchup - with a root beer soda.

You sang the songs, cheered the cheers and clapped your hands.

We left after second period again because it would be 9:30 when we got home.

But I said that next Saturday, we have a day game and you were so happy that you would be able to see a whole game all the way through.

Quite frankly, I was pretty happy about it, too.
