One such accomplishment was her participation in a school musical last school year. She was the "white stag" in a presentation of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. As part of her role, she had to do a 22-measure dance, solo, all by herself!!! She did it, and I was so proud.
Another accomplishment came about the same time last year. She qualified for the Washington County Spelling Bee and participated along with close to 40 other students in the county. She had to walk up to the microphone, state her name, school, and parents' names, along with the word she was given to spell. She got out in the second round only because she spoke the spelling of the word too quietly and was asked to repeat it. When she repeated it, she changed the spelling, thinking that she had spelled it wrong the first time. We didn't care, though. I've never seen her so anxious as she was before the spelling bee, so the fact that she DID IT, thrilled us!
Now, fast forward to this school year... Camryn is on the Junior High Volleyball team. While she doesn't have to talk much (except to call out, "Mine," or "Got it!"), she does have to "perform" in front of an audience. This alone is quite an accomplishment for her. She is quite serious about volleyball and begs us to practice with her every night after her homework is done.
Thanks again to all of you who keep Camryn in your prayers! Please continue to do so!
For from Him and through Him and for Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen. Romans 11:36
