Proud Parents

We've had a good week.  They boys are taking swimming lessons.  I was worried they would have trouble because they haven't taken lessons in a year and because we haven't been swimming in quite awhile.  I was wrong.  They boys are doing great!  Isaac doesn't have any fear this year and Brodie just swims laps like it is no problem.  He is happy because he can jump dive now also.  Abel and I were watching lessons earlier in the week and he looks at me and says, "we have good kids."  Yes, we do.  We have been so blessed!

After a long, stressful day at work, I came home to a very excited Brodie.  He was given the award for student of the month at school (of course he got the award on the morning that we realized we left his homework on the kitchen table when we were half way to school.  He was a few minutes late getting to school because we had to go back and get it.  He got the award in front of the whole school and he told me, "I'm surprised they still gave me the award since I was late").  Brodie wanted to dress up for school today because he said he had to get his picture taken for being student of the month.
