the summer of Henry

This has been Henry's summer. Probably the most exciting thing, to me, is my little 4 year old is reading! I finally got a video of him in action last week. We are all pretty proud of this kid.

Another cool accomplishment is he has learned to swim. No more water wings for this guy. He's on week 5 out of 6 weeks of swimming lessons and he's become proficient at scooping ice cream (breast stroke), monster arms (free style), and chicken-eagle-soldier (elementary backstroke). Henry's favorite thing to do, however, is swim under water. He loves to play Torpedo Tag, where he throws in a torpedo and we race each other to get it. Yay Henry! We're proud of you!

what a wonderful time in a child's life - when the world of books really opens up to him. congrats, Henry on such a milestone!
