Life as a hockey parent


Oh boy, what have I gotten Drake into? What have I gotten Babs and me into?! Drake's infatuation with hockey has taken another turn, possibly for the worse! He insists on being a goalie. For now, its a non-issue as he has an excellent goalie on his Mites team. But, next year, he says he's going to be the man. Where does he get the goalie instinct? Could it be both his grandfathers, his god father, and his dad (yeah, me) were hockey goalies?! Nah.

I borrowed some youth hockey gear and he made his debut on the ice Monday. He did OK. We'll see. I'll have to re-route his track to the NHL, but I'll get him there.

NOT!
