Our summer's are spent at the pool. Swimmer girls swims and then stays to coach the little kids who participate in the rec league while I assume the role of chauffeur. Back and forth several times a day I drive to the pool. Although she's exhausted by the end of the day, she loves it. And I think it's so cute to watch her talk to a group of 20+ little people.
At the end of practice, all the coaches took the time to copy each child's races on their arm or leg with a Sharpie marker for the meet tonight. While each parent has a master sheet that lists each child's race, it's always best to have them written on the child so there is no doubt. Once the meet starts, it moves fairly quickly and that IS NOT the time to be trying to figure it all out. Missing a race is not fun for anyone.
After everyone was appropriately marked, swimmer girl got her directions for tonight and home she came to a giant bowl of sesame noodles wih chicken (one of her favorite lunches).
As I stood snapping away, this sweet boy sat there taking it all in. Not a peep, only a wink and a smile. He had me at the first smile. I couldn't get enough of those sweet toes.
