For Grandma

This weekend was pretty good, not too exciting but I did see Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 (good movie with a HOT man) with a friend Friday and bought a book I have been wanting to read..now to find time to read when I really should be doing other things. My daughter had a soccer game Saturday and Sunday. I love going to her games, there is something great about the adrenaline rush I get everytime she scores (she is a forward)!! But what made this weekend great was that I was able to get my mom out of the house and take her to a game. She has not seen my daughter play since she was probably 6 or 7 and she is now almost 14. My mom is pretty much in her room all the time as she has severe COPD and cannot function without her oxygen. She cannot walk more than a few steps before not being able to breathe so it is rare that she gets out of the house. It was so cool to be out with her again..I miss it even though it is not the same as it used to be as she is not the same anymore. She had a good time too and my daughter was very surprised to see her as I did not tell her I was bringing grandma with me. One of my good friends surprised me and showed up as well. It's fun to share in your childs greatness!! The best part was when my daughter scored and it was not just a simple goal, it was a great shot...everyone cheered and yelled for her as it was a shot the goalie had no chance of getting! My mom clapped so much and took all the credit saying "that one was for grandma"!
