Year of writing 179. Pride

6/28/12

My daughter jumped off the side of the pool and swam to the other side without any help. This might sound banal, but the swelling of pride I felt watching this little girl, my daughter, the once mewling little thing on the bedcovers as she furiously kicked and blew bubbles across that pool almost knocked me over.  I have a feeling I'm in for a few heartswells and torrents of tears before this journey is done.  In the mean time, I have some swimming to do with the most awesome girl in the world.
