Thoughts on birth, adoption, race, special needs, parenting, chaos, and life with four kids- all with a chewy liberal center.

Weekend Wisdom
"No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money."
The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all this, and they scoffed at him. So he said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of others, but God knows your hearts; for what is prized by human beings is an abomination in the sight of God."
- Luke 16:13-15

Bend It Like Beckham
So... we may have a little problem with some of the rules of the game
but other than that... she's a pro. (in fact all the girls in U5 are
very good at grabbing the ball, doing somersaults, picking flowers and running to the
sidelines for hugs)
X is spending more time in the goal
(and seems to be enjoying it-mostly)
And then there is D
(who did manage to not be the first kid to get red-carded in the history of U6. We were a little worried- she started off the season with a pushing issue- a fine skill in the pros. Not so much in U6)
Of course the best part... post-season ice cream

Best Thanksgiving Quote Ever
From the best TV show ever, Buffy the Vampire Slayer
(and don't make fun if you've never watched it)
BUFFY:
Yeah. I guess I never really thought about it that way. With mom at
aunt Darlene's this year, I'm not getting a Thanksgiving. Maybe it's
just as well.
ANYA: Well, I think that's a shame. I love a ritual sacrifice.
BUFFY: It's not really a one of those.
ANYA: To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice... with pie.

HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE
