So Where is that Smile?


Well it is still there. It is a smile that lights up a room. She has become a little shy and we often don't see it when we are out and about. But when people do...it is electric. Sometimes it surprises people and they can not believe it. It is truly a smile that melts hearts.
So she has a new love. It is called swimming. In fact she always wants to go. It is better than gymnastics. It is probably in a tie with horses and smarties. The horses are gone with the winter and so she often asks about them but they are simply not around to adore. Swimming on the other hand is just up the hill and wow I could not have predicted this. Smarties are a carefully controlled substance so she asks about them but they are a little fleeting. She dreams about swimming and every time we get into the car she thinks we are going, or thinks we should go. The most challenging thing about swimming...is getting her out of the pool and keeping her out. Even after we have changed into our clothes...if I turn around too slowly, she is skittering down the hall towards the pool....she is ready to go again.
