We have another swimmer in the family!

I know that you always hear people say, oh kids just grow up way to fast. My reply to that is usually, some days yes and somedays NOT FAST ENOUGH. I know, I know how bad is that, but come on get real as moms we ALL have days like that. Well the other day I had a, they grow up way to fast moment. Brenton our #3 has been working very hard on his swimming ability's so he can take his flying leap off the diving board into the 12 FOOT DEEP WATER. Needless to say this was freaking me out a little. Ryan has been working with him as I am in my own little world swimming laps. On Friday night Brenton walked up to me sooo proudly and said, "mom I am ready to take the swim test." I looked at him and looked at Ryan and said, "I'm not sure about that, lets see." At this point he started to physically pull me out of the hot tub and said, "come on mom I will show you!" I was NOT looking forward to getting out of the nice hot tub and getting back into the cold pool but at this point if I did not I am sure he would have grown super human strength and  thrown me in the pool because he was so excited. That little man blew my mind he may even be a better swimmer then me! There was no way I was going to tell him that though! I still asked if it would be ok if I swam next to him during the test because I still could not believe that he was doing so well. of course he passed with flying colors, and he is a rope climbing, diving board, crazy man! So yes they are right, kids do grow up to fast!
