Rhythm

Rhythm is a weird word to write. Have you ever noticed this? There are 2 "r's" and you don't really pronouce either one except to make the "m" a little separated from the "t". I guess it would look weird if we got rid of the second "h". That, however, is not the reason for my post today. I just looked at the word and got caught off on a tangent. A big surprise, I know, right? Anyway, I am back into the rhythm of the week with my bike ride and yes, I am kind of dripping, which feel good. Had a good ride and a great week-end. Church was good. We had our HP group leadership meeting and then we had our committee chairmen over and got some goals set for the coming quarter and we are moving forward. I went home teaching with one of my assistants whose companion had moved away. It was good. Saturday we had my youngest daughter's swim banquet. It was wonderful. She earned her letter. I am proud of her. I just hope that she decides to continue with swimming. Not that fact that it is swimming (which is a great exercise) but the fact of the discipline and sense of belonging and pulling together that it provides. I think it helps prepare one for college better if the discipline learned is applied once there. My youngest son has started to get things outlined for his mission and to get his papers started. He is a good kid, as are all of my children. I feel so blessed to be a parent to my kids and more than anything, to be part of my wife's life. She makes me better and, being latina, has helped my with my rhythm!
