Baseball, Softball, Twirling and Swiming

The kids and I are having such a blast! Michael continues to have panic attacks. We were able to see someone, but the medicine won't be available until after 6pm today.

I wish I could figure out what is causing it. I have been having so much fun here. I'm thinking the kids and I will make it an annual trip. All the kids were excited about that and Michaela said that next time we should stay two weeks so we can have one week where we don't have to get up early. Everybody thought that would be a good idea. We'll have to see, but as of right now, I believe we will be making this an annual thing. Merlin and Lori said it sounds good to them.

Yesterday, I watched Sarah and Rachael play softball. The team won and Rachael made it to third twice in a row driving in 3 players each time. Sarah managed to get both her hands hit when up to bat.

Today, I watched some of Michaela's twirling group. Not something I can do, but definitely fun to watch. She is very, very good.

Tonight, I watched Daniel play baseball. He only played the last two innings. I guess he has had a lot of playing time and it was time for him to sit out for a while.

The kids spent a great deal of the day in the pool again. It seems the "fish gene" I got from my dad was passed on to them as well.

I'll be glad when I can get the other medicine tomorrow for Michael. The stuff I have makes him so sleepy and is not having the desired affect. He did fall asleep pretty fast tonight, must have been all that fresh air. He fell asleep pretty fast last night too, but had an attack after he had been up for about 30 minutes.

He cried at Bible school today when we were making the art project. They were making something to give someone who helps them by getting their hands dirty. He pulled his hat down close to his eyes and said "I have to make this for daddy. Not that I mean HAVE TO, but I have to". I gave him a big hug and said that was more than fine.

Ugh, 6pm tomorrow can't get here fast enough.
