Strike Strike Baby

Today was probably my best bowling day ever!  All three games were over my average and very close to each other.  My first game was a 186, second a 185, and third a 183 for a total series of 554! Woot Woot! I had fun and our team took all four games. We all bowled pretty good today. (3 games and total pins)  You'd think I could bowl good more often but just last week my fist game was a 101.  The next two games were pretty good though.  I probably should throw a few practice bowls instead of using my first game to warm up.  ☺ A few weeks ago or even a month ago I think I only got about an 89....my lowest game since I started bowling with the ladies. (over 10 years ago) So I am pretty consistent at being inconsistent. I use to write down all my scores but I quit doing that a few years ago and that is why I keep it here when it's worth remembering.

Braxton My Son is 27

I think about this middle child of mine and the word that pops in my head is "FUN".  Braxton has always been a child that makes fun happen.  He is adventurous and isn't afraid to try anything which has caused me concern a few times over the years. Braxton makes me laugh out loud a lot and I like that.  Braxton plays hard but Braxton also works hard.  Braxton is such a hard worker and just like playing will try anything.  He's not afraid to try new things or figure something out.  Braxton is one of the first ones called if Gramps needs help.  Braxton is dependable.  Braxton is also a sensitive soul.  He is so caring and kind.  Braxton truly cares about those around him.  Braxton has grown up well and I couldn't be more proud of him.

Braxton is a loving husband and a very involved daddy to Sadie.  I smile that my kids are doing so much better than we were doing at their age or stage of life and I think we did okay.  I adore this child of mine and I'm glad that it was I that had to remind him to put things away.  I'm glad I was the one that had to constantly buy him new socks because he would run around without his shoes.  I'm thankful that he forgave me for head thumping him with my head when my hormones were unbalanced.  I'm thankful that he is happy and confident in spite of Larry and I constantly getting after him for one thing or another.

Braxton has always been a fun and enjoyable kid.  He is positioned perfectly in our family to be a friend and an example to all of his siblings!   I'm glad I am that one that calls him my son!  Love Him!
