Andrew's new numbers

Andrew's new numbers are a tiny bit lower, but they are still over 700. We won't check them again until October, so that will be a longer wait for me (the numbers watcher!). But he is doing well. He looks really good. His iron is low which maybe accounts for him being so tired a lot. He ran a 5K on the track tonight, and I watched him favor one leg again. Fortunately one of the coaches noticed and called out to me. We will try to get him to the trainer soon. He does not know he is doing it! He did it all through outdoor season, and it drove me crazy to watch! So we keep doing what we are doing and add some iron.

Sam's other stuff was fine. So he is good to go for a while. He has kept me on my toes at VBS this week - swinging a little more than usual or doing the opposite of what I think he should. But he is good with mostly good numbers.

Pete and Will rode their bikes up the Blue Ridge Parkway to Floyd, VA, today! I know they probably rode over 100 miles, and Pop picked them up a little ways from the house. We are going to get them tomorrow and cannot wait to hear all about their adventure! Pete borrowed a neighbor's bike and has not been on one for a long time. But he and Will really wanted to do this, and it will be a great memory for them. I hope Will was easy on him. Will rode over 50 miles one night this week in 2 1/2 hours.

Thanks for asking. I was hoping for bigger numbers, but he does need what he needs. We will find out what that is when he goes through an illness time. We are still trying to get him as ready as we can for fall. So thanks for the prayers!

Love,

Wendi
