Eva emerged from school today bouncing and loud-talking with excitement. She had learned to pump her legs on the swings! Her friend Valentina taught her. "And I wasn't even dreaming!"
So we went straight to the park. She jumped on the swing and away she went! She was just getting some good momentum.... when the sprinklers fired up. Poor kid got trapped and had to wait while I put Joshua back in the car then ran to help her. She was pretty upset but cheered up considerably when I suggested we call her Dad to apprise him of this latest development.

My favourite part was `I wasn't even dreaming!'. Hilarious.
ReplyDeleteI have fond memories of "pumping" on the swings. Truly empowering. Fun!!
