I tell you since Facebook I hardly post on my blog. Sorry about that. I guess I feel like with all the status updates and pictures I put on FB I don't need to blog. But you get so many more details when you blog.
Abraham has been loving school. He asks all the time - is it time for school yet? We are thankful for that. He is learning to read and that is going well although he wants to be able to read chapter books now so that he can get some prize the teacher has been talking about. It's hard for him to not be the best at everything he does. He asked me today if I thought that sports was the gift that God gave him. I had been telling him that some kids learn to read quickly and that is just how God made them, and that other kids learn to read at the same time as everyone else.
I have been playing in a fall softball league and last night we had our final 2 games. We won our first game in the last inning. We were down 7-11 - the games are limited to one hour so we only had 10 minutes left when the other team was up to batt. We got three quick outs and then just rallied - the other team was home so they had one more time at batt, again 3 quick outs and we won the game. Then the 2nd game was the Championship game - we went on a hitting spree and just kept scoring and scoring every inning. We ended up winning by mercying (not a word I know) the other team 17-7. So we were the champions - it was a lot of fun. We even got trophies which I have not received since school. I gave mine to Abraham, he was very excited about it. The only downside to our last game was I got hit in the leg playing short stop and have a huge bruise and my leg is all swollen. Oh - well! Here are some pics of me playing.
Here is my leg - it almost looks like a second knee. I know I need to shave!
