slip-slidin' away

Zack can officially swim across the pool on his own. No more floaties for this guy! This also means he can ride ALONE on the big waterslide!! He was so thrilled and wanted to go over and over and over. He is such a cute little swimmer.


Cindy and I took turns laying out by the sleeping baby while the other one swam with the big kids. Towards the end of the day, Zack got a little tired and decided to come dry off by me. He laid his little freckled face about three inches from mine and said, "Now that I am a good swimmer, I need to be a lifeguard when I grow up." I told him I thought that was a fantastic idea. Then he took a great big sigh and said, "I am never going to be an adult." At first I thought he said "a dork" but then I finally realized he was saying an ADULT. Adult/Dork. Tomato/Tomoto.

Let it be known that Ben told Aunt Cindy she had about 15 or 16 million freckles. He'll catch up with her soon enough, I dare say. We are all going to be a little devastated when the summer is over.
