On the Waterfront

Sabine starts swim lessons tomorrow. I'm so excited to help teach my little guppy to love the water. Here are three new swimsuits she will get to choose from for her big day. Don't you miss the days of not caring what you look like in your swimsuit? I hope Sabine's not-caring days last a lifetime. (I'm perfectly dreading shoving my body into a suit for the occasion. Why hasn't someone designed a neck-to-knee, baggy bathing suit that's totally chic? Sigh.)

That roxy bathing suit! So cute!!! I miss my nephews and nieces, I miss them being little and holding on to me with their little arms and trusting me to take them in the water. It made me brave and fearless, I who was always afraid of the water. They're teenagers now and I love them so much, but they don't need to hold onto me, my nieces ask me to take them shopping and my heart tightens as I realize that they're becoming beautiful and almost independant ladies, and my nephew just turned 17 and I still remember the 7 year old munchkin who always wanted to sit on my knees and who loved sleeping over and watching tv all night. Kids are wonderful. I guess I was lucky to have such awesome nieces and nephews. I still am...

@MissA, I have to tell you that nieces and nephews are something so completely special...I have a set of three yr old nieces and one nephew who is 5. He was born not long after my mom died, when the family was a total grieving, devastated mess. He brought so much light and happiness in such a dark time. And I totally fell in love with him. We have a very special relationship...have always been very close...and it's pure gold and ease because I don't parent him in the same way my sister does. So enjoy your nieces and nephew...you will always have that special something with them...and it sounds like they are very lucky because I can hear in the words that you write that you truly, truly love them to pieces.
