fearless children and baguettes

I don’t have these, fearless children that is. Tomorrow the girls will start taking swim lessons, and I wish they will get over some of those fears they have about getting water above their shoulders. Whenever we would make the girls go underwater you would think we were trying to drown them. I’m really hoping they can overcome so of their uneasiness before our trip down south in April. Oh sure, the girls do just fine in the water with floating devices, but we wish they would really take advantage of the water and swim like little fishies. Both Mike and I were avid swimmers at the girls’ ages and hope our girls will someday love to swim, too.

How shameful I am to talk about swimming in warm water while we’re in the midst of this never-ending winter. Our town was “blessed” with a few more inches of snow on Saturday. Mike and the girls were thrilled though and geared up for some snow time. Here are the girls all dug in.

Instead of enjoying the winter whites, I worked indoors on getting this dump cleaned up and finally started some projects that have been on the list for a long time. I’ll be posting pictures soon.

In the meantime, enjoy some “Foux Du Fafa” to brighten your day.
