As Jason was videoing Addison practicing a dive at swim lessons, he caught a boy getting a little too touchy with his baby girl! Good thing it was all innocent! Look out Daddy...better start polishing that gun!

Mother's Day

A day that is so special to me. A day I almost never had. I will never forget the day I became a mom finally. This little peanut with strawberry blond hair was brought into the room and I knew she was my daughter. I felt God's presence and saw the answer to my prayers. Thank you Jesus for answered prayers!

The moment she was brought in the door

My prayers were answered a second time one July afternoon while I was at the pool with my best friend. God knew in my heart I was ready to be a mom again so he blessed us with another sweet precious baby girl. The moment I saw her I knew our family was complete. I feel in love with those big brown eyes.

"For this child I prayed; and the LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him."

1 Samuel 1:27

Swim Lessons

Addison has started swim lessons at Pre-TWST (The Woodlands Swim Team). Pre-TWST lessons are designed to teach swimmers all four strokes as well as water safety. There’s no minimum age they have to be to start as long as they are potty-trained. The classes have a 4:1 swimmer to instructor ratio and last 30 minutes. All Pre-TWST instructors are registered with USA Swimming.

Pre-TWST classes are taken at the Conroe ISD Natatorium. The natatorium is very nice and HUGE! When we went to register we were able to tour the facility. As we walked out the doors to the pool Addison's eyes

almost popped out and she said, "Wow Mommy!" and I was thinking the exact same thing.

Addison is really enjoying the classes. She is learning so many new things and she cannot wait to use her new skills at the pool this sumer. Jason and I are very happy about her interest in swimming and look forward to the possibility of her joining swim team next year.
