It's the beginning!!!!

There he is! Right in the middle! This is the very beginning of yesterday's lesson. This picture was provided to me from another mom. I forgot my camera and I had to have a picture... so I waltzed right up to the mom with the best camera and said, "PLEASE!" 

I am so proud of him! He has no hesitation. He is doing exactly what the instructor asks! He is ready for this! 

I am so glad that we waited until now. Now and again, doubt pops up about our parenting style. I see everyone around me scurrying to this and that with their children. I sometimes think that we should be doing all of those things, too. But, after seeing my confident, brave, and well behaved little man enjoy himself so at his lesson, I am certain that we are doing what is right for our family.

Chris, I came upon your blog and enjoy reading about your family and seeing the pictures! Great job!!! It should inspire me to blog more on mine, but it's not happening yet. I love to hear about your confidence in your parenting styles. Self doubt can be a tricky thing, and I am glad you are seeing fruit of your choices. Miss you guys a bunch!

Thanks, Ann! I'm so glad that you are following. This is mainly for friends and family, so I am glad that you found us! I'm sure you'll get more than you bargained for reading about our little life!

Christine! I finally found your blog! (and Benjy's which is so funny to see the contrast between the two of you) I laughed out loud when I read that you found the mom with the nicest camera! That's hysterical. It's funny to read what Benjy writes because I know if I look at the same days post from you, I can get a totally different perspective on the day's events. I will have fun keeping up with you all! Don't know much about bloging, but it looks like fun. I'll try it out little bits at a time. Take care!
