An Up Date with Brooklynn/White Water Rafting

OK...I know it has been awhile since my last post, but really trying to keep 3 kids entertained for the summer is almost impossible. They all want to do different things and what the 13 year old likes the 10 and 3 year old don't. All you moms out there know how it is. We have managed to stay busy this summer with lots of activities. We have found out that Brooklynn has no fear when it comes to water, which fits right in with the no fear of her Brothers. So far we have managed only one trip to the Doctor for a broken wrist. Really who jumps a curb going up instead of down. Davis has at least 6 weeks of healing if not more. We thought that was it for the swimming, but some very smart moms informed me of this sleeve you slip of the cast and it seals off to keep the water out. Yeah, at least I have my sanity for a little longer.

This past Wednesday we went to Monte Sano Park to meet our Lifeline Adoption Agency friends for a picnic. It was good to see everybody and to even meet new people. Davis and Brooklynn had a great time on the see saw, although my heart stoped once when I saw Brooklynn going flying up. She did not mind one bit and was laughing, but wow mom had a moment. Dare Devils is all I can say about my kids.

On Thursday we made a trip to the pool. Brooklynn decide she did not need me to hold her anymore and she went under water. She came back up and said do it again, please. Geesh, I wonder how much more my heart can take. Davis managed to stay off the diving board, but I could tell he was just itching to get on there. As always, Brooklynn managed to be the center of attention with all of Davis' friends. She never lacks anybody to play with that is for sure.

On Friday, I sent Braxton with the youth from Church to go camping and White Water Rafting. I just keep praying that all will be safe. I did however instruct him to please not call from the emergency room. I talked with him this morning and he informed me that they heard a bob cat scream twice last night. Doesn't that make mom feel better. He did say that did not bother him as much as his friend snoring last night. What is wrong with him!!! They will embark the rapids at 3:00 pm today. It does sound like fun though and I am sure the will all have a great time.

Well, I think I will go for now. I will work on some pictures soon, but I am so impatient that it kills me the time it takes to put them on here.
