Gold Canada Gold!

Who didn't watch the amazing men's hockey game between Canada and USA?
Well, my daughter Ceilidh. She and her brother were playing in the basement, on the stairs, around the foyer. And often in the line of the sight of the television where we were watching the nerve-wracking, heart-pounding sudden death over time period. So, when Sidney Crosby scored the goal that was indeed heard around the world, and Daddy let out a huge shout of joy, Ceilidh was startled and frightened. She started to cry with huge tears leaking out of her eyes. As Daddy danced around the living room, Ceilidh cried harder.
"Daddy, you scared me!" she wailed.
So, Daddy had to pick her up, soothe away her fears and dry her tears in between watching the replay of that amazing goal.
