David has never ever been in water. Ever. Not one time since he was born. For the first four years, his pediatrician recommended otherwise so we never took swimming classes. But this summer, I wanted to register him for classes and see how he does in the water. I was a bit nervous but never said anything to him. Well, it turns out he was a superstar! From the first moment, he jumped, he put his head under water, he made bubbles. It was like he’s always been in water. I can tell this will be a fun class!
Jake’s parents have been in town and before they left, I wanted to make sure to capture some photos of them and Nathaniel. In this photo aboce he definitely looks just like me.
The Hulk David! He’s been having so much fun with this costume. And here’s one of the baby.
And just in case you think I don’t have one from yesterday for Nathaniel, here it is. David kissing him while his grandmother holds him. Much loved.
Love this boy and this very handsome man.
Look at that look! And, of course, here’s the sweet boy.
About to fall asleep.
Those stunning eyes. I wonder if Nathaniel will have them, too.
Catalyst sixty-seven is: What’s your favorite part about being a woman or a man?
my words:
I am a firm believer that women are the better and stronger gender. Maybe because I’ve been lucky enough never to suffer any kind of discrimination as a woman so I only see the advantages. The ability to carry babies. The ability to multitask and to love unconditionally. To care. To feel. To cry. To communicate. To be soft and tender when needed and tough when needed. To be gentle. To be intelligent and emotional at the same time. To get things done.
I am not sure why but I’ve always felt that women are, in general, more capable and more intelligent then men. I hold women in the highest regard and feel like I’m honored and delighted to be one. Wouldn’t have it any other way.

The swing means a sleeping boy. Don’t worry he sleeps in his crib all night. And ppor David is a bit bored.
And here’s one from yesterday that I missed.
Yes, he is still on the swing.
Getting a teenty tiny bit settled in.
Relatively represantative of how our day has been. Blinders. IKEA. Crate and Barrell. Boxes. Unhappy children.
Ok, catch up time. We had no internet for DAYS! so I am going to post all the photos first and then I’ll write up some words. Apologies ahead of time for the flood of posts.
Moving day.
