Avery finished her first session of swim lessons today and got a good report from her swim teacher. This was a huge relief because she didn't want to go back after she jumped in the pool out of turn and had to be rescued last week. I didn't want to indulge her reluctance for fear of her developing a phobia of the water, so I insisted she go. I definitely doubted my decision after I had to carry her kicking and screaming into the pool area, but as soon as the lesson started, her tears subsided and she enjoyed it.
After burning off lots of energy swimming, we decided to take advantage of a beautiful spring day by
picnicking at the park, then playing outside the rest of the afternoon (who has time for a nap?!?!) After such a busy day, this is what happened halfway through dinner. We called it at 7:15pm and tucked one exhausted little girl in bed. After all this activity, I'm not going to be far behind her!
