A visit from the Irish

Today a family from our church came up. Joe came to give his testimony here at camp and he brought his wife and 4 boys. We had a blast playing with them all day. Ethan tried so hard to keep up with their boys who are almost 4, 6.5, and 7 years old. The smallest one is 3.5 months old. Ethan pointed to the baby whose name is Keegan and said "Kee". It was so cute. He is really trying to talk more. He was pushing his own stroller down the sidewalk today and went off the grass in front of the camp nurse and her daughter and Ethan looked at them and said, "stuck"! It is neat how he is trying to use his voice more and more.
Anyhow, we had a fun day playing down in the lake. We saw a bald eagle as we were showing Joe and his family around camp. They are just such majestic birds.
We were down in the low ropes course and Ethan was standing on a huge truck tire and fell off head first. My poor boy! He was fine, but it look like he about broke his neck. It is amazing how God created our bodies to be so resilient.
The campers once again are in love with Ethan. There are 2 girls that have to say hi to him before every meal and in between. He grabbed one by the hand on one side of him and the other on his other side and escorted them to the dining hall porch. He looked like such a ladies man holding these girls hands on both side of him. He also gave the same girls kisses tonight before we headed inside for a bath and bedtime. Except Ethan likes to kiss on the lips, so I had to do some extra washing tonight because he kissed so much! Well i'm off to bed. This heat and my son are wearing me out!
