Im not a sporty person. Ever since I was a kid, Id rather stay home, read a good book, play imaginary play than go out and get involved in sports. I guess I have a fear of anything that has to do with a ball. I grew up flat-footed and knock-kneed so I was really clumsy. I also wasnt able to learn to swim or even ride a bike. Such a sheltered life I have led, I know. When I was in grade school, I tried fitting in – I applied for the volleyball team, badminton team, even pingpong – but as Ive said, I have a hard time getting the ball to like me. I cant hit straight for the life of me.

Ok. Stop laughing now

It is a good thing I married a sportsbuff. Edil loves to play anything that can be classified as sports – basketball, volleyball, badminton, bowling, track. It helps that he is mighty good at it too. With Matthew, we are trying to expose him a little because he is growing up to be very bookish so I told him to pick on sports club he would like to enroll in (only one because that’s all we can afford). He picked taekwando. While Edil would prefer him to get involved in basketball (Believe me, he tried), I told him it is better than nothing. We would like to get involved in baseball too. Teamwork and strategy would be great. We are even willing to invest on baseball uniforms and Baseball Equipment! They are going to stored in boxes when they grow up, I can see that now. Wouldnt it be so nice to see those gloves grow bigger and worn out when the time comes?

But I will have different colors of belts. As Matthew is really intent on learning taekwando.
