Canadians are typically not known for being boastful people. Typically. I say typically only because it's our default state unless we win a hockey game. And I have to say last nights Gold Medal final against our lovely cousins to the south was a night for boasting. To any of my American friends who are hockey fans, I just want to say your team did amazing and Ryan Miller is awesome (can he switch his citizenship by the way?)
I hope that my Canadian sisters and brothers were as gracious as can be. I am super proud of how our country did--14 GOLD MEDALS! Most medals in a winter Olympics by any nation. Now that's something to be proud of. And big congrats to the US for getting the most Olympic medals overall--did we have any doubt in you?
Did anyone watch the closing ceremonies? I just love our tongue in cheek humour--you can poke fun all you want, but truly we have the last laugh. I am proud of our heritage and what we stand for and for all of our differences, remember we are all children of the same God. Now THAT's something to be proud of.
P.S-thanks for putting up with my two-week Olympic watching hiatus. I promise not to leave you again.
Love,
D-Dizzle.
Hello, I'm a first time visitor stopping by from Kelly's Korner. I actually didn't watch much Olympics.. Sad, right?

I'm so proud of Canada! It's so wonderful to see such patriotism from so many people - especially because we're not usually like that. I wonder what this July 1st will be like?
