Chest swells, lip quivers

Today,  at swimming lessons Busy jumped in the pool and swam underwater. I got tears in my eyes.  My lip quivered, my chest swelled. I was so proud I felt exhilarated. She was very excited too and so proud she came out of the pool and said  "I am ready for the big girls class because now I can jump in with my gobbles on".  As I write I can hear Chef pretending to be a crocodile while Busy is in the bath and she is squealing with laughter.  I must  make special note of these moments when life is sweet.
Speaking of lip quivering have you read this post? Blimey I cried just reading about little Indi.  I promised Cam I would write a post tonight as poor Cam is stuck in a not very nice place- so go and say hello to her and send her hugs and love...

  2. Awww thanks Cath! A post just for me. That is seriously the cutest photo ever. Do you think I could pinch Busy's sunnies (or are they gobbles for outside the pool)? They're supercute!

    I love the pic, so gorgeous.
    The first time Caleb went underwater, I teared a little, well maybe a bit more than a little, but you know that chlorine will do that
