About Time

We finally joined the Y. Instead of paying soccer fees for the boys we put it towards the first two months of a family membership. And once we sign the three of them up for soccer in the fall, that will be equivalent to three more months of family memberships. I've swam laps twice now and I can't tell you how great it feels to be swimming again. It's a high that I can't explain other than saying 'I love it'! Every stroke today felt so effortless and natural. And apparently it's all in perfect time because Conner said to me this weekend, while I was lying on his bed (on my stomach wearing shorts) "your legs are chubby mom. I like them. They are so squishy". I couldn't help but laugh. Sometimes the truth hurts. And it's best to handle the truth with a sense of humor at times. And those words only inspired me to kick harder today.
