summer can't get here fast enough

we went swimming after school yesterday.  I was proud of myself for taking all five kids by myself.  We had a blast. It was hot and breezy.  so breezy, in fact, that one of the umbrellas blew off and shattered the glass of the table it was attached to.  That was a fun mess to keep Simon out of.  Ro absolutely loves the water.  I am so looking forward to swimming every day in the summer!  Only 15 school days to go... (of course I'm counting.)
