"she's a diamond, and how will they cut her?!" or something like that.

i caught him practicing his figure skating in the bathroom mirror on sunday.

he swears he doesn't like the figure skating.

too girly for him.

then he begged for snowboarding all day.

and when can he learn to snowboard?

cause that's what he wants to do when he grows up.

cause he loves the manly kill moves they do.

and even though i kept plugging skiing and how you can do cool tricks on skis too,

he wouldn't back down.

sorry, dad, i tried my best.

and then i came around the corner to change a load of laundry.

my heart skipped a beat when i saw him glued to the figure skaters,

and then later practicing his spins and glides alone in the bathroom.

there's nothing i love more than seeing a softer side come out in a boy,

even if he won't fess up to it;)

...

my favorite part of the olympics?

watching the figure skating with sean,

and laughing about all of the commentary they give.

then we requote them back and forth to each other 

in our best commentary voices.

or sometimes we say it in our normal voices,

because that can be even funnier.

and then we laugh until we cry.

brian boitano is my favorite.

maybe it's my hometown bay area pride,

maybe it's his soft soothing voice,

maybe it's his passion of skating that comes through my tee-vee.

there's one thing for sure,

i LOVE with sean.

and it doesn't get any better than that:)

bring on the beginnings of olympic watching FHE!
