Passing the ball to Daddy

James spent at least 30 minutes playing catch with me tonight. Since he's just shy of 20 months, "catch" is more like "chase-and-return." He did a good job of staying where he was, waiting for the ball, grabbing it, and then throwing it back to me. It was awesome.

James isn't just getting older; he's getting more fun to play with. Praise the Lord that he is a healthy and happy little guy.
