We have a slow steady rain with some grumbling going on this morning. I do love the rain as it washes away all the dust, pollen and yuck off the trees and flowers. We also want our pond filled to the hilt for the animals, come July and August it is scorching around here!!!!!
The school was having their first art exhibit and Garretts drawing was chosen to be on display, it was so neat to visit the gallery. I felt so inspired, like I was visiting somewhere else. It was great to see what creativity they have, I wish I could be as free to create, but there is too much junk I have to remember and it gets all jumbled up.
Friday Day, I spent the whole day at the school for field day. We played games, ate treats, laughed, some cried, some got sick!!!! But we had a great time. Now I have ordered pics and will put together a 12x12 album as a gift to Mrs. Farmer. She has been an awesome 3rd grade teacher and this was her first yr. I wish I could have her with Garrett until Graduation Day.
She is young, fun, energetic and knows how to bring the best out in Garrett, we just love her.
On a side note, please lift up her dad in prayer, he has had surgery and lost the lower part of his leg due to Diabetis and now it is attacking his hands. He is a Preacher and knows that God is not ready to take him home yet. (he is just 50)
Wow, where do I start? We had a Baseball Game friday night!!! Wow, wish I would have had a CF card in my camera! My superstar son hit in two RBI'S and caught an awesome air ball way out in center outfield. Talk about wow!!! Then to top it off they put him in to pitch the 6th and last inning!!! The score was..can't remember but we were 5 points ahead and they could have tied up the game. Our hearts were beating out of our chests, we were so nervous!!! You should have seen Garrett, taking big breaths and total concentration. I instantly started praying for persicion for him and that he didn't hit anyone with the ball. Well... their star heavy hitter was up to bat....yikes. He pitch and it was a ball, again, and maybe a strike, then it happened he hit him with the ball. The batter was furious!!! Hit the bat to the ground and stommped off. I said well, glad thats over we got the first hit out of the way. He then walked two more and some ran in and scored. Then here comes my friends son and a good player. This will decide the game...
Strike, foul, ball, ball, Strike, and Strike. He stuck him out and we WON the game. He was given the game ball for so many great plays. Wow, my heart settled down about an hour later, Carl was in the dug out and said he could barly watch he was so nervous.
We all went out for ice cream to celebrate!!!! The coaches complimented Garrett's abilities to us and one said, "That boy just amazes me!!"
Well as for today I have a list of to dos: Did I tell you all I love list!!!! I have my crop for CTMH and need to get my layout and kits ready to go. Does anyone need help on how to prepare for a crop? I can help
