Brent

Over the Labour Day weekend we went with my brother Anjo and his family to a nearby provincial park. We took along my dad's boat so the boys were able to get in some serious tube rides. At one point Brent was being the spotter, and said "Whoa! Uncle Anjo, you just CATAPULTED Devin right out of the tube!" Enough knights and castle stories for him!

Brent on the soccer field was completely different from Devin. At first I was surprised he even wanted to play because just getting him outside can be a challenge. He was his true encouraging self as he would run beside his teammate with the ball yelling "Run like the wind bulls-eye! (from ToyStory) You can do it!" Ironically, it was Brent that was able to score a goal (his reaction captured in the photo)...Devin will try again next year.

Brent is also our little organizer. Since he was little he has lined up dinky cars along the floor and as he has gotten older he now sorts them by size, colour, make... I think one of the best days of his year was when I asked him to help Devin organize his desk. "So Devin, do you think you will
use this piece of paper again, or should we through it out? How about we put your rock collection in this box and put it over here. Your pens could go in here and you can put all your blank papers in this drawer..." And Devin thoroughly enjoyed having someone else do his work!
