Now You See It ~ Now You Don't!!

Well, Logan lost his 3rd tooth today....

if you ask him, he will say I "accidentally" knocked it out!

That's not exactly what happened.

I was washing his face this morning and I suppose I got alittle rough....bam!

It's out now.

The toothfairy will be at our house tonight.

Pine Cove 2009

It's with mixed emotions that I write about Logan's first camp experience.

Logan is far more confident and secure than I was at 7 years old

and

for that I am grateful.

He is spending this week at Pine Cove Christian Camp in Tyler

and

I'm assuming having a great time

(since I can't have any contact with him for the week)!
I have NEVER gone a day without atleast speaking to him.

My mom and I dropped him off on Sunday afternoon

and

we get to pick him up bright and early on Saturday morning -

I can't wait to see his sweet face!!

Logan's thoughts on going to camp was,

"I may not know anyone now but I will when I get there".

Wow! I'm blessed and thankful to have a child that is so secure with himself.

Isn't that exactly how we want our children to be?

Confident, secure, and indepedent?

I know, that he knows, that I am always with him - even when I'm not.

Creative Genius

Logan is such a creative genius!

When I picked him up from Oak Forest Montessori School last week,

he was excited to show me his lastest creation!

He had spent his freetime making this mask.

I must say I was very impressed!!

My GRANDmother/Logan's GREAT grandmother is now walking on streets of gold with Jesus.

Knowing that she is no longer with us, on earth, is bittersweet. I am going to miss her like crazy. She is one of the sweetest, kindest, toughest, and loving ladies I have ever known. I am so proud that I am her granddaughter. She leaves quite a legacy - one that I am so proud to be a part of!

Logan and I were able to spend a day with her just a few weeks before she met Jesus face-to-face. I don't know who enjoyed it more - her or us!

Gone Fishin'

Logan decided to spend a week with my dad this summer!

(NOT overnight as he just lives a couple of miles

down the road from me)

My dad drove to my house each morning to spend the day

with Logan while I worked to pay the bills :)

On this particular day my dad decided to take Logan fishing -

the first time in a boat (without me). My dad knew that within

30 minutes to an hour Logan would have had enough.

Well, SIX HOURS later -

Logan was still not ready to come home but I was ready for him to!

The pictures above are some of the fish

he caught. My dad has the picture I want......

Logan sitting in the live well with the fish swimming around him.

Oh boy!

My dad said that he turned around for a second and the next thing he

knew Logan was "swimming with the fish". Logan just wanted to play with them!!

I have to get my hands on a copy of that picture....it is too cute!

Longview World Series Champions!!

Well, they did it!

The Tampa Bay Rays won the city championship!

We had a TERRIFIC swimming party to celebrate!
