Guess What? Amy Ritter, a close friend of our family, was baptized about a week ago. To celebrate, she invited my family and some of her friends to go to a park with her and Alex, her son. We had a great time. I played volleyball and tennis with Alex. We all played on the playground’s equipment. The kids wanted to go to the lake so we could walk on the beach. But when we got to the beach, we saw a dead fish on the ground. I said, “Poor guy.” Henry said,”Poor guy. He’s gross!” Alex found a stick and walked over to the fish. Then he stabbed the fish’s eye with the stick and the eye exploded.Then he stabbed the stick into the the fish’s his head and the stick came out the other side of the head and on the end of the stick was the fish’s brain. Then he told Amy all about it. Yuck!

Today Jack finished Kindergarden. His teacher, Mrs. Bluhm, taught Kindergarden and 1st Grade. This was her 30th year of being Faith Baptist Christian School’s Kindergarden teacher. She was me and Anna’s Kindergarden teacher, too! Way to go Jack and Mrs. Bluhm.

Yesterday, I was reading a comic to Jack. When I was done reading, I threw the comic book to the other side of Mama and Papa’s bed. I told him to go and get it, and when his head was turned I ran out of the room and behind the bathroom door. Naturally, he followed. When he came into the bathroom, I growled. When I did so, he had had his back turned which freaked him out even more than usual. You should have seen his face!

A couple days ago, I was playing a game of “monster chase” with Will. I kept popping out of nowhere and yelling Yaaaaaaa!!!! But one time I chased him into the kitchen. Now when you walk into the kitchen, You have automatically cornered. Will obviously knew that because when I made the “Where’s Will” impression he freaked out. He started holding onto a chair and moving his feet remarkably quick and started screaming and giggling. Then I caught him and chased him again.
