X-Tails and X-dreams

This evening I received a special delivery. A friend of mine delivered the first book of a series that her husband wrote.

The X-Tails: Join tis adventurous group of best friends on their thrilling journeys as you learn about friendship, sports, safety and the importance of being a role model. This first book, The X-Tails Snowboard at Shred Park is great. It has a great story, amazing art work and even a moral. Good times. I will definitely be purchasing the rest of these series as they publish them, and can't wait to introduce my kids to new adventures of skateboarding, BMXing, heli-skiing, surfing and mountain biking.

When I see someone following their dream and giving up everything to make it happen I can't help but be inspired by Larry Fielding. I used to have dreams of writing a kids book, even have collections of pages that were going to be my first short novel. I'm not sure if that is my dream anymore but still, it is inspiring. Perhaps when we have more time (Christmas? Summer?) I will take an opportunity to consider further the X-Tails and my ex dreams. For now, I'm going to finish up some assignments and take some time aside to read my kids a cool new book.
