Follow-up: Getting benched


So, after watching the first period of his Metro League game from the bench, Colin skated his butt off for the last two periods, scoring a goal and an assist.

And though he scored a goal in his second game, what impressed me most was how hard he played in the third period, when the game's outcome was no longer in doubt. It was the fastest I've ever seen him skate in any game.

I think he and I might have crossed a bridge here today. It's been a very bumpy ride over the past few weeks, but we've come to an understanding.

  1. My sister has said to me many times in the past (and this is in a crude form)...

    "I'm their parent, not their friend."

    Great posts.

    Keep it up!
