Summer Fun!

As a kid I was a total fish. I couldn't get enough swim time. I remember asking my mom over and over if we could please go to the pool and her response was always..., "Not until it's 80 degrees". Obviously this was a long time ago. I live in the South and these days it can get 80 degrees by 9 am! Either way I used to call the weather line about every 5 minutes or so to check on the temperature until finally my mom would agree to take us. I loved swimming and so many of my childhood photos are in a bathing suit with my arms wrapped in my floaties. You can imagine my glee when in the 4th grade we moved to a house with a pool. I remember the day we moved in I jumped in with all my clothes on. I just can't wait for Marlow to have summers like I did.

Marlow got her first taste of the swimming pool this weekend. Of course these days I'm a little sun phobic and really wasn't ready for her to go all in. Armed with her sun hat my little girl got to dip her toes in!
