summer already? seriously?

The pools opens tonight. Usually it's in the high 80's by the time the pool opens so it feels way early. We have a swim team sign up party tomorrow and we will be there with so many bells on because I somehow made a child that likes to swim competitively. I really disliked swim team as a kid- I always felt like I was drowning, so it caught me off guard that Mary is so good at it. Kate is thinking she may want to go for it this year too- Francie and Lizzie are saying no still, so we'll see. Lizzie spent last summer glued to my flip flop at Bocage- she prefers the company of mommies to kids so every word I said to anyone was interrupted with "mommy, mommy, mommy".

So summer is almost here and I have nothing planned except a trip to the beach with Mom and my brother and his family in June- I think there are about 10 or 11 weeks to fill. Hmmmm. Could be good? Could be bad.

Lizzie is an extraordinarily unique kid. Aunt. Butt.

We will be at the pool too. I hope more often than last year. Are your youngest going to be in preK or K next year?

are you at bocage too? they are going to be in prek again- where will yours be?

We joined bocage last year and then never went because it's not that much fun to drag a newborn to the pool and a 3 yr old who can't swim. This year will be different though! She'll be in preK too at SJ in the full-day class.
