Now that Mason is officially a BIG KID (I guess 4 is the magical age) new & exciting things seem to be starting every week!
In July he went to VBS for the first time at Bridgeway church with his cousins Evie & Nolan!
This was one of the most thrilling parts of his summer. Still to this day he talks about it...well he calls it PBS (which I giggle at his adorableness every time he mentions it)!
Auntie Amber & his cousin Amy were his leaders and they were amazingly patient and loving being that this was his first time away from mom & dad on a daily basis for a longer chunk of time than church.
Mason LOVED spending all day with people he loves so much...not to mention secretly shoving candy in his mouth at every chance he could get!
Our BIG KID also started swim lessons this summer which thank the Lord ended dramatically better than it started! Yes, that was my child screaming at the top of his lungs grasping for his parents with a death grip, attempting anything and everything to get out of having to go to each session. I think he was banking on the embarrassment factor to sway my decisions....but little does he know how stubborn his Mother is.....He should have ran this tactic by either his Father or his Grammy before electing this crazy scheme.
Okay, so with all that said with...
-consistent attendance (besides camping trips)
-an amazingly sweet and patient swim teacher (thanks Veronica!)
-this random huge sword fish he wanted to play with
-constant mind preparation
-monster truck bribing
-the threat of no camping trip with the Bernhard family
-12 lessons
&
-his secret desire to actually have fun & swim
HE DID AWESOME!!!!
Miss Veronica was AMAZING and a great encourager!
Mase passed the Guppy 1 & Guppy 2 classes..... GO MASON!!
You are going to be a little fish before we know it!
...more summer fun posts to come!
