What is summer without strawberries??

We are patiently waiting for our Solar Guard to come in the mail so that we can start our summer of fun in the pool (the Scar Guard with the sunscreen), so I am constantly trying to come up with things to do at home. Fortunately she has found a new passion for drawing, coloring and painting, as demonstrated in a previous post. She has also fostered a love for dance. Since I've signed her up for lessons, she has devoted much of her time to floating & hopping around the living room. She even rented a DVD of a ballet class that she concertedly follows to learn the moves. It's so fun to see her develop hobbies! Tonight we danced and made a batch of freezer jam. HOORAY! I cannot wait make more!!!

One anecdote: This morning Katherine dressed herself in a princess dress, brushed her hair and put on her shoes and told she was getting ready to go see Zach Merrill because she's going to marry him...

Baby Front: This baby is WAY active, kicking all the time. I'm thinking it's going to give Katherine a run for her money... We will find out the gender next Wednesday. Any guesses??

Family Home Evening

We've taken FHE as a time for Katherine to report to Geoff on her scripture memorization. This opportunity prompted her to take over the rest of the lesson, using her scriptures and the pictures in the Friend magazine, to teach about the Lord Jesus Christ. It's moments like this that give you hope you're on the right track...
