Keepin' Up with the Olsons: He Worked, He Saved, He Did It!

Words By Which to Live

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
-Theodore Roosevelt

He Worked, He Saved, He Did It!

Well, Malachi finally saved up the $20 for his Razor scooter! . We had been planning on finding one on craigslist but how excited we all :) were to get a NEW one when we found it on sale at Toys R Us 50% off so it was 19.99! He is very proud of his new toy, we are very proud of him for being so patient and saving! Here are a few pictures with his new "ride!" :)
