Yesterday it was the first time I could float myself in the water without a floatie. This tripled dad's confidence that he could make me a real swimmer by the end of this summer. So dad bought me a magnetic drawing book today as a surprise present. Tony and I both loved it. I was so happy that dad bought this for ME.
After dinner, we rushed to pool again though the time was pretty tight. Dad wanted to solidfy the gain I got yesterday. He was a little worrisome that I forgot how to do it. It turned out that I made another step up today. I COULD SWIM NOW. When he released me in the water, I kept my body level with the water surface and kept kicking water hard with my legs. My hands were pushing the water to keep my boby balance. Then I was moving forward, pretty fast. This not only wowed mom and Tony, even dad, a guy who was hard to be wowed. When he freed me in the center of swimming pool, I could swim to the side. We did so many times as I became pretty confident now, once I realized I was up to it.
Dad said way to go to me. I said way to go back to him. What I really mean was the present. Keep doing that and you will get its worth.

I will tell daddy, mom was not careful
Tony's finger accident results in Ray's refusal to close any door when baby is around. He always asks mom and dad to do it. It is just the safest way to ensure he is not gonna make the same mistake again. This was proposed by dad originally but it turned out Ray really listened and strickly followed it.
Yesterday, when mom brought two kids to gym, Mom closed garage door uncarefully while baby 's finger was in. Thanks to the garage door thick cushion, no damage was caused, but babdy did cried a little bit.
On the way to the gym, Ray kept telling mom:" Mom, when we got home, I will tell daddy. Mom was not careful. Mom jammed baby's finger."
When they came home, Ray jumped out of car and rushed into the house to dad:"Daddy, mom was not careful. She jammed baby's finger." Then mom just stepped into house, with a flushed face.

Line leader pride
Ray rarely talks what he does daily in school. When mom and dad asked him what he did in school, the answer usually was either nothing or playing toys. There is no cam service in this school, so all we knew was from dropping and picking-up time peeks and parent teacher interview. We know he has been doing all right.
One day, Ray approached mom and told her that Mrs. Betty chose him as a line leader today. He seems pretty proud of this. We are not sure what a line leader really means, but it sounds like a good thing. At least Ray thought it was a big deal.
Well, mom and dad are pretty happy about it. Not for being a line leader, but for he is able to and eager to share with us what he is proud of in school.
So we mark this down. Certain year, certain month, certain day, Ray was a line leader.
