We Knew Him When...

This weekend we went where many Canadian parents of young kids go every Saturday morning: the local hockey rink! Budding superstar Logan has been lacing up the blades and playing hockey for a few weeks now and we got our chance to see him in action. Isabelle and Oliver are never upset to go see some hockey so they happily hopped in the van, but nor before Oliver grabbed his trusty mini-stick and ball, just in case he was needed as a last-minute substitution! It was great to see all the little Timbits shuffling around, with so much equipment they seemed to double in size. Logan was right in there, running drills and chasing loose pucks. He seemed to hope for some passes but we all know that no kid this age would pass to anyone! Nevertheless, this is step one of many for Logan to become the next Sidney Crosby (his hockey idol), or better yet just to have fun with his friends each and every week. His Dad Shawn has two paths planned out for him, rock star and NHL phenom. It's a good thing he has baby Kayla in the wings just in case those dreams don't work out! For now, Logan is earmarked to be on Hockey Night in Canada in 2025, and we will be his biggest fans!
