Wil, now 34, is beginning to think about retiring from professional hockey. He's played for over 10 years in the league and is well respected by just about everyone. One of the things keeping him from retiring just yet is that he doesn't know what he wants to do after retiring. He has thought about working as a broadcaster or even as a coach or a talent scout, but he is still undecided on which he would like to pursue. Bekah tells him to take his time and be patient. She is busy with the kids at home and enjoys watching them grow up. Tali and Paul are nine. They are in fourth grade now. Tali enjoys school and likes doing hands-on projects and learning about history. Paul is still shyer than his sister and prefers to hang out in his treehouse with a few of his close friends. Tali took up gymnastics a few years ago and has proven to be a natural at the sport. Her ultimate dream is to compete in the Olympics someday. Paul decided that he wanted to keep playing soccer, so now he plays on a boys team in a county league. Eve is seven. She is in first grade and, while she has some trouble reading and paying attention, does well. Eve is doing gymnastics like her older sister, but isn't quite as coordinated. Matthew is a big boy, at four years old. He is a lover of music and Bekah has decided that he should have piano lessons. Matthew loves playing the piano, even if the songs he produces sound nothing like music. Matthew is often joined at the piano by his little brother, Dominik. Dominik Mihael was adopted a year and a half ago from Slovenia. Dominik was born in a mountainous region and even now talks a lot about snow and mountains and things like that. The Thompson's third daughter, Shayna Elise, was born recently. There were no troubles during the pregnancy and Shayna was born healthy and right on time. The older kids have taken to her and enjoy entertaining her and showing her all of their accomplishments.
