Swimmin'

This morning Son had his first swimming lesson, and boy was I proud of him! He smiled the whole time, listened to the young girls teaching the class, participated...he was so anxious to get started I swear he would have jumped in the deep end. He was amazed at the size of the pool. I don't know, will I have a future swim team member on my hands?

I really was proud of him, usually he always hangs back, but not this time. There was one little guy, however, who was scared to death and cried the whole time. I smiled at him and encouraged him when he finally did do something. All the moms did.

In between all this I had to wrangle Daughter. She was about to jump in too.

Okay, I've got a confession to make. This morning I submitted a sample of my writing to a mom blog collection sort of thing. I have no self confidence where my writing is concerned, but I took a deep breath and hit "send" anyway. Let's see what happens.
