Eels Private Training Session!!!



The weekend was normal, stay at home wet days, but on Monday it all cleared up and we had lots to do. Chris from ABI come to do normal routine activities with Brody.

Then Brody and i got ready and waited for his cousins and Uncle Dave to turn up at Grandma's as we all went to Parramatta Eels stadium for our very own private session with the players. Thanks to our wonderful friend Jess who wrote in and organised it all for us.

The boys were all so excited, as Brody sits on his sit and yells out Go Parra!!! I am just glad he didn't yell out go Bull dogs as Bill goes for them and Brody keeps swapping teams all the time.

We got to watch them train for 1 hour, but as time ticked Brody's anxiety went up and up and he acted his normal self when there are strangers and not knowing whats is happening. Igot hit, pulled my hat down over my face and rubbing my face.

Brody ran through the seats, with me chasing, while the others went down and got photos and signatures. I got Brody down to the field where he crashed tackled me twice. It warmed him up to the team, and then he went up to the players that were left and got his photo taken with Hindmarsh and got some signatures on his shirt. I have a respect for HIndmarsh as he stayed around for us to get the photo. I didn't take the photo, so we have to wait for Jess to send us the photo.
The Eels gave Brody a hat and the lovely Jess brought Brody another different type of hat for his birthday. Thanks Jess. xoxox
Brody had a really great day, but he fell asleep on the way home, and now in bed. I am tired too, after chasing him all around the stadium. Clinic visit tomorrow and ABI, so busy day again.
