swim boy

Summer has officially begun at the Smith house, with school ending on Friday.  Here is Ben's swim outfit of choice.  When he wears this and stays at the bottom of the pool with his diving toys, I notice the other children give him lots of room in the water.  Sort of the swim unibomber look, if you will.

The other good summer news is that we have a new camera after the wite-out episode took our old one, and so the Syd and Ben movies will be back on this summer.  There has been some pre-production going on via snail mail between Ben and his friend E-dog.  All I can reveal is that the words "I, Carly" have been used a lot.

In the world of writing Smith adults, Steve is finishing up the format of his children's book and we are entrusting it to God as he inquires of publishers.  I'm working on a compilation of blog entries for a little book.  Any title ideas?

I'm also going to be facilitating an Austin Stone college girls prayer group at CHOP, beginning this summer.  VERY excited about that and praying the Lord will use it much for UT.  Please pray for us if God puts it on your heart to do so.

It's going to be a great summer.
