Today I am thankful for indoor pools at rec. centers.

Yesterday was a typical Pacific Northwest fall day.  Cold, big, thick drops of water falling from dark gray cloud covered skies.

My toddler was getting a bit antsy staying inside so when my cousin called to tell me she was taking her daughter, who is only a week older than Ian, swimming I jumped at the chance to go.

The kids had a blast and burned off tons of energy.  Ian went down the big red slide, but only once.  He didn’t like the fact that we go under water at the end.  He said it scared him, but there was the little kid slide with a shark on it.
