Happy like a fish in water
On Saturdays Nathan has swim class at the rec center. This morning
at 7:00 he asked, "What time is my swim lesson?" Then at 7:30 he got
his bathing suit and sandals out. At 8:00 he asked, "When are we
leaving?" Then he asked the same question at 8:07 and 8:12.
Exasperated, I told Nathan to go in my room to check the clock and
tell me what time it is. He came back and said, "Mama, it's time to go."
"Nathan, if that's true, then why am I still in my pajamas and robe?" I replied.
Swim lessons aren't until 11:00. I'm happy that he's so excited
about learning to swim. Still, his enthusiasm is a bit out of control.
