These weeks have flown by, I can't believe how quickly the summer has gone. We've packed a lot of fun into two months - lots of beach and pool and friends and family. We think he has grown in every way, outwardly and inwardly. We are very pleased with and thankful for his progress.
The latest excitement has been Brady's motorcycle purchase. It cost him all his summer's wages he'd made up to that point, plus his savings, but he feels it was well worth it. The boys in the house are pretty excited about it. I'm happy for him, but tend to worry about the dangers of motorcycle riding. It also seems very surreal to have a 16 year-old son with a motorcycle licence (he's the youngest licenced driver on the island) and a two year-old we're teaching how to ride a little battery-powered tractor. A different kind of normal :)
As you can see, the new bike reqires much attention...
Notice Brady on the bike in the garage - its very important to go out and wave "bye" when he leaves for work.
