What Life is All About, Your Kids....
Why do we work as hard as we do, we all have different reasons? What is success and what does it mean to you, again we all have different answers on this topic also? Regardless of how you answer the above questions success is a personal matter, not always about how much you make or are making.
Success to me is all about how my kids turn out to be, this was always a goal to me, to be able to help them achieve their dreams. Regardless what their dreams where, my kids are into sports, so we support them, drive them, to tournaments, practice and games. The only thing l ask them, is that if they do not enjoy it tell us. Trust me with the cost of fuel, lodging and all that goes along with having kids in "Rep Sports" it is not cheap...
My son just got back from the states, he was playing in a tournament of tournaments in soccer. Yes he loves his hockey as well as my daughter but he had to make a decision and become a one sport player so he decided on soccer. The Tournament of Tournaments is all about being recruited by some of the best schools in USA.
Well he got a few offers, from some schools, then he got this email from Cornell University in New York State, to come and work out with the team for a week. This made me very proud of his accomplishments, to be able to perform at this level at such an early age..He has one more year of eligibility, before he decides which direction he will persuade his dream.
