YMCA Update

Open and shut, open and shut (hands opening and shutting)
Give a little clap, clap, clap.

Open and shut, open and shut
Fold them in your lap, lap, lap.

Thank you for the world so sweet,
thank you for the food we eat.

Thank you for the birds that sing,
thank you, God, for everything.

This is the prayer I was surprised with tonight at bedtime by Lucas. This is the lunch time prayer at the YMCA daycare and his face just glows when he says it.

To say the Y has been a blessing would not be giving enough emphasis to how great it's been. Lucas is back in learning mode and loving his time making friends and learning new things. Hayden enjoys the time there in the afternoons, especially on Fridays when they swim. Tanner and JJ are able to go to tutoring three days a week after school and then walk to the Y. They are definitely enjoying the time playing hoops with their friends!

It's worth every cent we're paying in order to have them in a place where they're learning, interacting, and getting exercise at the same time. Our lives are getting back to normal and now we have a little extra perk with being Y members. Justin's definitely enjoying getting back in the gym on a "regular" basis and I'm enjoying that they're enjoying it!
