TBall, Modified BBall, and Swimming Lessons Pictures

Another Milestone

Yesterday, Bryton swam his laps at the Lena pool. Those of you who are from Lena can truly appreciate what this accomplishment means for him :) It was his first day at the pool this summer, outside of swim lessons, and he decided he'd do it right off the bat. So, now he is on his own...between the waterslide, diving board, tube slide, and just "hanging out" with his friends (so he says) he's a very busy guy :) I'm proud of him, sighhhh...it does make this Mom a little sad to see how quickly her little man is growing up.
Oh yes, and he's doing front and back flips off the diving board, and he's pretty darn good! (yikes)

A Birthday Prayer...

Sent from a kind friend:

May the Lord bless you and keep you
and remind you of his many blessings,
recalling his deeds of faithfulness and mercy
through each and every year.
May he bless you with long life, gratitude for the gift of his son,
with a thankful heart,
and a loving spirit.
May he sustain you through joy and tears,
bless you through trials,
teach you to trust,
and increase your faith in him.

The Everlasting God is your place of safety and his arms will hold you up forever.
(Deuteronomy 33:27)
