Weekend



This weekend we were busy all weekend.  If I wasn't working on the yard, we were playing Sequence.  If we weren't grocery shopping, we were swimming.  It was a punishing schedule but it was great to have some time with Levi and not feel pressured into doing anything too much.   Consequently, I haven't been on the computer much but rest assured we have been having fun, as you can see from that happy smile to the left!

Swimming!

Today we went swimming in a small semi heated pool that hadn't changed decor since Cheryl was doing swimming training in Primary school about 35 years ago.  There was no one else and the kids loved it.  Interestingly the bigger boys swam laps.  Many laps of the 25 metre pool.  They were just enjoying the ability to swim I think and it was great to watch them be young and happy and fit.  It has been a long time since I have felt like that and watching them was freeing in a way.  I hope they stay that way for a very long time!
I had my underwater camera there, so I gave it to the boys.  There were few photos that were worth keeping but I do love the smile on Levi's face while he is underwater.  The other photo is a beautiful affect captured half in and half out of the water.

Day Off??

Levi in the pool
Today I had a day off. Well it was supposed to be a day off. Then I had to go to work to do a media thing for the Shark Bait Kids. I don't mind doing it, but it means that Levi came with me. So he got to play in the pool while they were taking photos of the other kids. Also he could help entertain one of the little sisters, or more likely she could entertain him. The whole thing was at the Corinda pool, so after about a 50 minute trip each way, my day off constituted about 5 hours of work. Watch me be in trouble for working too many hours again this week!
I am excited for the term to start again. I love Fourth term because we get to do the Shark Bait Program, but mostly I am excited because at the end of this term I get to go to USA. Levi is also counting days and weeks.
