Swimming

Posted by anonymous on February 18, 2010 at 1:54 PM

Today Simon's class and a local preschool class went swimming, so I got to go with them. It's nice when the water is 92 degrees! :)  Si really does like the water (when it's not chilly) so he had fun floating around in there.  Here are some photos!

Getting ready to go in

 

 

I kept asking him to grab onto the pom-pom but of course he wouldn't for me. :)  They said he will at times though and that's great!

Gert--Simon looks so big in these photos! He's really growing. Love his expression in the pom-pom picture--big, bright eyes :)

He has a smirky look on his face......like he is up to something and he's got your number! Love it!

That is awesome that they supplied the floaty for him! His face shows a little uncertainty? Overall-I think the water is great for our kids! Andrew loves the water as well:)

"Motherhood is about raising and celebrating the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that he is exactly the person he is supposed to be. And that, if you're lucky, he just might be the teacher who turns you into the person you are supposed to be." ~The Water Giver~

A prayer

Lord,

Please help me remember that Your love is always greater than my disappointments and Your plans for my life are always better than my dreams.

Amen.
