Reese was also a water lover.
Ruby however- isn't. She will take baths but is soo timid. And showers- no way!
So I signed her up for swim lessons. We are around water so much- I wanted Ruby to love it.
I was going into it expected meltdowns, freak outs, and a clingy baby girl.
I walked into the Blackfoot Pool- (the same place I took swim lessons) and I felt like it was a right of passage- passing on a tradition to Ruby. And instead of being the crazy kid in the pool- I was the chunky mama in the swimsuit with white legs and slightly too much cleavage. But I didn't care one bit- Ruby surprised me, she loved it. She wasn't the most brave in the class, but she wasn't screaming like the little boy next to her. She went down the slide, she splashed, and even dunked her face. I think Reese thought I was lying when I told him.
Being a parent is so fun. I have the best job!
