“A happy heart makes the face cheerful.” Proverbs 15:13

Josh and Brie are loving their first-ever experience at summer camp a few days a week. Thy are attending the Crimson Eagle Summer Camp at Philadelphia Biblical University, which is just fifteen minutes from home. The first day I picked them up, they said “Can we come back tomorrow?”. The answer was “you’ll be back in a few days”, but I was so delighted that they enjoyed it so much! Does their parents’ hearts good!

Joshua is enjoying baseball camp this week. As much as he LOVES football, basketball, and soccer, he has never played organized baseball. He is learning the sport with enthusiasm and interest. He’s also persevering during this current heat wave! One of Joshua’s things he recognizes about himself is that he perseveres. “Daddy and Mommy, I persevered!” He works hard and sees things through to completion.

Gabrielle spread her wings in theatre camp this week. She studied her lines faithfully at home without being asked. It also helped this little kindergarten graduate learn to read some challenging words! Here are a few pictures of her today at her “premiere”. She was “The Imperial Hairdresser” and “The Princess”. She isn’t a drama queen in real life, and she handled this theatre experience nicely.

We love hearing about your summer, too! 🙂 Please share!

And to those many of you family and friends who have told us you are shy about commenting or intimidated by how to do it the first time, give it a try! (You all know who you are!) It really isn’t that hard! Expand that comfort zone! It’s really very fun, and it’s an additional way to keep in touch! 🙂 And have we mentioned that it is really fun!?!?
