Josh has been playing hard today and riding his bike a lot. He has also been getting into "air soft" guns. I've never been a big fan of guns for kids...not even play guns. Yet, my friends who are wonderful christians, brought out a good point...he will need to know how to use a gun properly if he is ever drafting for war. So, I've allowed him to play airsoft with the neighborhood boys. Now, he want an airsoft gun. Not sure David will go for this...we'll need to do a little discussing about that.
Back at our hometown, there are places where kids and teens can go to do airsoft wars. It is a safe area that is monitored. But around here, just the neighborhood...not so sure it is a good idea.
He really wants to use some of his additional birthday money to buy an airsoft gun. : )
He is also into the old movie, "The Karate Kid". Right now as I type this, he is imitating the "stance" of the Karate Kid which made him famous. That bird looking stance. : )
We rented Karate Kid 2 from Net Flix and he was SO excited!!
So we will be watching this over the weekend. Even Jordan has gotten into these movies. :)

Gum....and just old sentimental mom comments!
Today Josh has had the hardest time keeping his bubble gum in his mouth!!! All day he has been chewing "Big League Chew gum". He is pulling it out of his mouth like silly putty and letting it dangle out of the corners of his mouth....YUK!! (as I type this, he is playing with it and dad just made him spit it out b/c he won't stop playing with his gum!) lol!
Josh had a great time swimming this morning at the hotel we stayed at last night. He would make up fun "racing/timed" games for he and Jordan. He loves to compete! (and loves even more to always be the winner!) : )
I love these qualities in him...he will persevere!
I've noticed a lot today how much he is growing up so fast (both of our children). Noticed this even more so while we were with our friends this evening, who have younger boys...my boy is so much bigger next to them!!! And I realized how quickly time passes bye. Have you ever seen that movie, "Cheaper By the Dozen"? Where the dad says he blinked and his little girl was all grown up??! That is how I am feeling about our children.
So, for all of you who have young toddlers and babies...cherish EVERY moment with them, because the time truly is fleeting!
Blessings!
