  What a brilliant last seven days! Our first week of YLCC is now done. There were so many amazing moments, too many to mention. There were simply great days of pure summer joy.

  One of my big moments happened on Tuesday. I took my son (happy birthday Matty) and youngest daughter to the movies. We went to see Kung Fu Panda. The movie was full of laughter, adventure and a really great message. Basically, the point was that (I am sorry if this gives anything away) if you believe in yourself you can do anything.

  There was a BIG scene in the movie where the Panda (Jack Black) realizes that he has the power to do what he needs to do. As soon as he said that, my son who is eight today turned to me very proud of his discovery and said…

  “Dad! Do you get it? All he had to was believe in himself, he has the secret power by just believing in himself! Do you get it?”

  I almost yelled out loud… “DID YOU HEAR MY SON!?” I was so proud!

  We all need to find the power with ourselves. It is incredible what I can do, what you can do, what we can do… think about it.
