love thursday

 

I've been thinking about water all day. It started with a mad search for goggles this morning and ended with finding this amazing picture. Every now and then, if I let too much time pass, I get desperate for the water. I need an ugly Speedo, a swim cap and a wide open lane. It soothes me. It's quiet and familiar.

Steve and I met coaching swimming. Last year, on the 20th anniversary of our first date, we were at Ellen's very first swim meet. Flags flapping in the wind and the smell of sun screen and chlorine. It was a very tender moment.

This is Charlie's first real swimming summer. We wondered how he would take to the water. Here's our answer!

Happy Love Thursday!

I love this shot. Both looks so happy. I hope we can all take a 'water vacation" together one day.

From one who swam yesterday - what a great post. The water is an old friend isn't it? :o)
