Despite Tommy being off work, the summer, with its various activities, must go on! Faith goes against common practice by taking swim lessons in the fall, winter and spring and taking a break from them during the summer, when they're more crowded and there are plenty of other opportunities to compete for her time. Her first diversion of the summer was a week of day camp. Although it met at our church, it was run by a national organization which trucks counselors and supplies from site to site for a week each. As seen here, one of her classes was Painting. (I never did get all the paint off of that shirt and pair of shorts.) Another was Gymnastics, which featured an exhibition for parents on family day. Faith won a genuine plastic gold medal for her participation!
