| 01 Jan Last night we celebrated the New Year at Villa Hills Gospel Chapel. I was so exhausted I slept in the back room and Ruth woke me 2 minutes till midnight. 08 Jan Oh No! It was daddy's turn to almost kill Sean-Daniel. I had just finished giving him a bath, and had stood him on a towel outside the tub. I turned away for a second and the towel slipped on the floor with the baby, and he hit his face on the side of the tub. He cried and cried. The next day, Ruth found his gum bruised and a loose tooth. 17 Jan Ruth called me at work to tell em that Sean-D had heard a little girl singing on the stereo, and he walked from the kitchen to the living room to find her. 29 Jan Yesterday, Ruth came by my office, and we went to the Scott AFB lake for lunch. When we set Sean-D on the grass, he was apprehensive about walking on the leaves. He got used to it and eventually started pushing his stroller around. When the stroller bumped up againg a fallen tree branch or root he would lean into the stroller and overcome the obstacle. Today Ruth bought Sean-D's first pair of new shoes. 8 Feb 02 Yesterday, David's school basketball team (Eagles) played a game that was one of the most exciting yet. It was in the last quarter of the game, and they had lost 3 key players - 2 for fouls, and 1 with an injury. His team had 4 players to their 5. Back and forth across the floor, the game was going at a frantic pace, but David's team was slowly getting further behind in points. In the last 2 seconds of the game the ball is passed to David who makes a spectacular 3 pointer. The crowd goes wild as the buzzer sounds. The Eagles lost the game, but won the moment in history. David was the talk of the town, and the pride of the Campos/Bradley family. 15 Feb 02 This week everyone except for Crystal was sick. We had to postpone Sean-D's birthday party which was supposed to have been on Monday the 11th. I was still not feeling well yesterday, but managed to take Ruth out to eat at "Frenchies", a fancy French restaurant, for Valentines Day. We had a wonderful time and reminised about our vacation in France. 19 Feb 02 We celebrated Sean-D's birthday twice because of the number of people we invited was too big. Friday the 15th we had my dad and Linda, and my brother with his family. Then on Saturday the 16th we had Ruths mom and brother, the Holtgrewes, and the Renths. Ruth, Sean-D, David, Amber, and I went to the Zoo Yesterday. None of us had been in a while, and it was Sean-D's first time. 05 Mar 02 Last night was Father/Son basketball at Davids school. It was father against son. I think it was the first time I've ever played full court before. We had a lot of fun, and best of all, noone got hurt. The final score was 63 to 61. Although the fathers lost, I think we did pretty good against the young-uns. 11 Mar 02 David left for Convention. He is entered in the chess competition, website delelopment, and photography competition. 15 Mar 02 Today Thomas Construction finished up on the new gutters for our house. They had finished the siding yesterday, but it was way too windy to do the gutters. Ruth and I are very happy with the way it looks, but more importantly there are no more drafts in the house David returned from Convention. He did very well. He got first place for his website, third in the chess competition, and fifth for one of his photo's. There were several kids from his school that did well, and so they will go on to the International Convention at Flagstaff Arizona. |
