06/06/2001, Wednesday - Swimming Lessons
(age: 4 years, 6 months, 17 days)
Last week Christopher finished his two weeks of swimming lessons. He's doing pretty well. Was able to
jump off the diving board and swim to the side. He really has struggled with the jumping part. He seems to stick
his feet and fall in doing a belly flop. Looks painful. In the end, though, he was doing much better. "Jump
like a pencil" his teacher would say.
Last week the kids were also in VBS. They had a great time and had a really cute parents program at the end
of it. The pictures I took are in my June
on-line photo album.
06/20/2001, Wednesday - Praying for Healing
(age: 4 years, 7 months)
I was praying with Christopher last night before bed. He had skinned up the bottoms of his feet at the
swimming pool, so I suggested he pray about them. Here is what he said, "Please, God, heal
my feet. And Jesus, can you help him?"
06/22/2001, Friday - Trip to Six Flags over Texas
(age: 4 years, 7 months, 2 days)
I worked four 10-hour (more like 12-hour) days and took today off. My company is allowing us to do that
once a month through the summer. My friend Wesley and I took our kids to Six Flags over Texas. I had not been
for years and it was the first time for Nicole and Christopher as well. We all loved it. I think the kid's favorite
ride was the Roaring Rapids, a ride floating on a large inner tube. Christopher only wanted to go once, but everyone
else went a second time and were sad we couldn't go more.
