swimming...

I love our community pool! I really do. We spent an awful lot of time there this summer. In the past, we'd do swimming lessons, but the thought of me going there alone with 4 kids made me more than slightly anxious...so I didn't do it. I'd go with friends once in a blue moon, but to be really honest, it was stressful. Too stressful to be enjoyable. I wanted to talk to my friends, but couldn't keep track of my only decent swimming children. This year I tried it a lot more often. Alone. And this time with 5 kids (my niece included). We had such a great time. The kids were in heaven...and I actually felt like I could relax a bit. I have to keep a close watch on Molly, but as long as I know my bigger 3 are in the same pool as me, I'm fine. Alex and Lizzy actually did the waterslides alone. Can you believe this is still me talking? Amy? The stresscase? I really enjoyed it. We may even get season passes next year. GO SCHOFIELDS!

WATERSLIDES! YEEHAH!
