Day 1971 | Deep-end Swimmer

The little one is officially a full-on swimmer. We’ve spent more of the summer in a pool than I would have ever expected and it’s been really lovely. Covid + super-generous neighbor = lots of swimming. I’ve never been a pool person but after a summer poolside, I kind of get the appeal. There were some days where that hour by the pool was the only time I sat down all day. When you’re home all day, every day it’s hard to turn off the need to be productive. All. The. Time. When we’re at the pool, though, I’m *required* to drop everything and stay focused on just keeping these nuggets safe. It’s going to be a tough summer to say goodbye to—for so many reasons.

I took a video of his swimming to serve as proof. If the video doesn’t show up for you below, you can access it here.
