A "Regular" Mom

We had Jyson with us for the past two weeks. Want to know what we did? Swim lessons. Every morning. Just like a regular mom. He's 11 and never taken a swim lesson before, so when we knew the two weeks he'd be with us I checked out the swim lesson schedule at the local pool. They run two week sessions and it worked out perfectly. He loved it and so did I. He's always been a fish but never learned how to swim any of the strokes or how to dive. He was so proud of passing the highest level (even though the other boys in his class were 3-4 years younger than him). Sure, it would have been fun to take a vacation somewhere, but I just wanted a taste of normal family life. Swim lessons, daily chores,  family prayer every night for two weeks. It might only happen a few weeks every summer but I'll take it and enjoy every minute of it. Gosh I love that little boy!!
