Sydney makes a splash

Our youngest daughter is getting bigger every day. Next year she'll be in middle school (grade 6-8 for our Canadian friends.) One of her big accomplishments of late has been learning how to dive. The school's guidance counselor has been giving Sydney some encouragement and tips on how to dive. Sydney has overcome her fears and now can dive quite well, even from the starting block!
One of our real items of praise has been the fact that Sydney has quickly found a friend. In Canada, she had many friends, but one clear best friend, Brenna Thompson. We were quite concerned that Sydney might not find anyone to take Brenna's place. But God is good and Alyssa found Sydney right off the bat. The two have been good friends ever since. Alyssa is a great girl, and a daughter of fellow staff at the school. We praise God for bringing Alyssa into our lives, and especially Sydney's.
