A Star

Colson was the "star student" yesterday at school. Let me just say this boy was proud. He walked up and down the hall showing everyone his star after I picked him up. It was the cutest thing!

He also wore it this morning while still in his pjs when we dropped Zach off. Goodness me.

 Colson's school ends one hour before Zach's, so we have a little extra time on Thursday afternoons. Of course I took him to get ice cream to celebrate. A boy after my own heart. ; )

 He picked snickerdoodle and loved it. I'd never heard of this flavor of ice cream, but it smelled like cinnamon. I think he would like any flavor!

 You can still see a little bit of pink from his swing accident on the tip of his nose and right under it.

He thought he needed to try my drink, too. ; ) We had a lot of fun just the two of us. 

Last night my combo team won all 3 of our lines! It was my first win in combo so I was very excited. My partner Natalie (right of me) and I lost the first set 6-2 and then went to a second set tie break and won. In the final tie break we were up 8-5 and guess whose serve it was? Mine! Always. Talk about pressure.

It was a tough match. I kept telling myself, "It's not over until it's over" and "one point at a time." Ha!

These women are such wonderful players and sweet friends, and I look up to them so much. I'm just thankful to be playing with them. They teach me a lot. ; )

Isn't this beautiful? A woman sent this picture to me today, and it's just sunshine to my soul. She called the purple open shell "angel's wings."

Have a good weekend!

Let all that I am wait quietly before God, for my hope is in Him.
