Braden just turned 7 this month and is in first grade.
As I think back over the past year I realize that Braden has grown up so much. He mastered how to ride a bike, lost 4 teeth, learned to swim without a lifejacket, and advanced leaps and bounds academically. His favorite activity is creating lego candy machines! Everyday there is a newly designed machine for us to see. And of course, the salesman side of him is always trying to market the use of his machines as they require coins to work (check out the machine blog post).
Besides building machines, some of his favorite things to do are imagine and play with Ashlyn, entertain Elise, create new recipes and try them out, and hang out with people. He's still Mr. Social, energetic, often quite silly, and just as enthusiastic about life as ever!
Some activities he enjoys are Sunday School, Awana (where he's memorized several Bible verses), swimming lessons, and his Friday School classes that he is a part of through our homeschool Co-op.
Decked out in his Awana Vest.
He's such a joy to be around, and a very thoughtful, loving boy. I thank God for the blessing of Braden.
