I don't dare blink, but I gotta remember to breathe

This is fast paced!

Our last two weeks:
TONS of baseball! Willem is doing more pitching, he is hitting the heck out of the ball. His team is great! These relaxed week nights at Lauzier are pretty much just what we needed.
Oren has GREAT hearing. I know this because he can hear the music of the ice cream truck a mile away. Hazel and Oren get ice cream at these games, Merit comes by after practice to route the GOLD team on. This is the good stuff.

Varsity Chiefs are having a tremendous season!
Merit was a JV guy this spring, called up to varsity three weeks ago. He is an encourager, a great dug out guy, and he is learning SO much from this team!




 A police escort out of town today!
They headed to Tri Cities at 12:15.



I can't tell you how much I love watching this little guy sing!!

Yesterday was hard and so good. 
Oren had leg cramps in the night Wednesday night and then again last night. 
He was up a lot. He actually was not up, he was awake crying. Poor guy. So we faced yesterday feeling pretty tired. But watching this guy sing last night was so wonderful. He has had a GREAT year!! So much growing. Happy Hearts has been so wonderful for him.
Hazel sat in the church pew with her dad and I, so proud of her little brother. 
Merit was driving back from Tri Cities. (But he came by the church to congratulate Oren and to hang out with us, once he was back in town.)
The Moses Lake Chiefs toured Gesa Stadium and had a BBQ in the area, all final four teams! 
Moses Lake has not been in the final four since 1981! 
Willem was close by at Lauzier, playing a terrific game! 

I feel sad that there is no more Happy Hearts pre-school for our family, but Oren is onto kindergarten where he will do fabulous things there too. 

Time feels like it is going too fast. How is it the end of another school year already?! Sometimes I don't dare blink. But maybe some days I forget to catch my breath too. We are moving quickly and catching everything we can, reminded that the occasional down day is so good too. This summer will provide some. 

Willem plays in the 3 on 3 this weekend, I think that will be really fun! 
There is a lot going on in Moses Lake this Memorial Day weekend.
Many memories to be made.
