It is yet another rainy day - its not looking good for sports this weekend. I like rain because its the only thing that saves me from sports!!
I've been enjoying all the tea I brought back with me from England. But I can't ever make a cup for myself without making one for Ben. Its half milk and he drinks it down fast. Maybe next year we'll let him start drinking coffee.
After a year and a half of always making an effort to use "English" words, now I am making a big effort to use "American" words. I keep saying "football" when I really mean "soccer". People might be wondering why my 6-year-old girl plays football.
One of the grocery stores we now frequent has great service. The cashiers pull the items directly from the cart and scan them, then someone else bags. If I try bagging myself I am told not to, because then I would think I'm at just an ordinary grocery store, and not this grocery store. Then the bagger or someone else takes all the groceries to the car and loads them. Whether its a cart full or one little bag. It all seems a bit much but I'm getting used to it...
And I really don't mind that sports is starting to take over my life. Well I don't mind too much. I knew it was coming. And I am excited to see both kids play their first games, hopefully sooner rather than later...
Good thing you have your mini van no soccer mom is complete without one.End your tea, here in Germany they spell it Tee makes me laugh.
