this afternoon manuel got off work early and we did our usual family routine...(ok we didn't have bean and cheese burritos as the beans were still cooking when we left) and packed up the kids lubed up in sunscreen, big towels, change of clothes, chlorine-removing shampoo, iphone with music playlist and speakers, adult beverage, snacks for the kids to eat/share with friends and headed to our community pool. story just learned how to swim within the past couple weeks and he showed me how he could swim the width of the pool and back for the first time earlier today. then later in the day sea said "hey story, why don't you pass the swim test so you can jump off the diving board with me?" and he said "sure!" and did...without even thinking about it...kinda crazy...he is only 3-years-old and swam both lengths of the pool and treaded water for 30 seconds...
his swim stroke is a cross between the back stroke, flipped to his side stroke and a rotating crawl that looks like synchronized swimming...he takes his time and looks so relaxed...
long day in the sun so i'm off to bed...i don't know if i mentioned i'm going to try and post/upload a photo for every day of the next 182 days until my 40th birthday...
