In the new year, we're finding lots of fun things for Maggie to do, since mommy would rather be inside while it's cold! The activity that has started first is swimming class. We purposely scheduled this one in the evening, as it's more daddy's style and gives Maggie and daddy some fun time together. And it meets right at good ole Churchill High, so it's nice and close.
It's a pretty loosely structured half-hour class. The instructor mentions some 'goals' before everyone gets in the pool and then she just tries to stop in with each group to see how they're doing as class progresses. For the last five minutes or so, everyone gets together to sing some classics like 'Motorboat, Motorboat,' 'The Wheels on the Bus,' and the 'Pancake Song' (which was also in swimming class with mommy a couple years ago.
Maggie looks forward to swimming with daddy. Although her lips are usually blue by the time class is over, she loves every minute of it and still asks to swim more when it's time to go home.
