The temperatures here in Oklahoma have been staying around 104 and for this family that is just to hot. I had a dear friend, who is no longer with us, she loved the heat and everything about summer, sitting by the pool, the hot sun and her roses. I always think of her and wonder if 104 would be to hot for her. These hot temperatures leave me looking for cool things to do, sure you have seen pictures of the kids playing in the water but I am sitting in the shade and hiding from the sun. The sun makes me worry for my white skin and did I put enough sun screen on me and the kids. Recently I took my boy to the bowling ally since this is a nice cool place to be. I wasn't sure if I would be chasing my boy up and down the lanes but he knew what he was there to do and he was excited. They provided us with the lightest balls they had and set us up for some serious bowling. E has always loved anything that involves a ball. He is good at basketball and he has an arm like you wouldn't believe and bowling was no different, he loved it. He had his technique like all professional bowlers do. He brought the ball up and released it in the way that only he can and then the waiting came and this I do believe was one of his favorite things to do, he loved watching his ball roll down the lane and he had to get down and low just like you see them do on TV except a little lower than that, we are talking low to the ground low. What made E different from all other bowlers is that he wasn't concerned with how many pens he hit and to be honest I have no idea what his score was. Bowling is definitely going to be one of our hang outs for the rest of the summer along with Blockbusters. While others are basking in the sun we will be hiding in the shade and waiting, just waiting patiently for the nice cool breezes of fall to arrive and until then you know where we will be.
All we can say is that the good lord is with you in finding the thing that he loves to do Bowling is good exersize for all of you but this will really help him.
