Hockey season is now in full swing for Tony!!! ⭐️🏒🥅💚 He placed onto a great 10U hockey team, started his weekly team practices & enhancements (in addition to continuing private lessons), survived & thrived in all 3 of his pre-season games, and has been enjoying playing defense-his choice!!! He is now very much looking forward to regular season games, which start this weekend. He is going with the flow & adjusting to his new routine, but please…PLEASE keep his adults in your thoughts & prayers because we aren’t used to this volatile schedule yet😅😭😭!!
✨✨✨WAY TO GO, ANTHONY!!! WE ARE ALL SO PROUD OF YOU!!!✨✨✨
