LESSONS

Dad and I took off to Chilliwack to see Morgan doing her swimming lessons.  She is a great little swimmer as were her mom and grandma before her.  The whole family was.  Boys seem to like diving the best.

I used to love going swimming in the ocean when we visited friends who moved out from the prairies.

Maybe my arm will be better for next year's pool parties.  I know a pool is a good place to do exercises.

Ben was waiting outside in the parking lot as we had driven by and just missed it.

The drive there was very smooth and we would have arrived in good time if we had not been driving up and down the same road.

Yes, we had cell phones but had not connected in time.

I think we are very fortunate in these our later years to have more and more opportunities every day.

"Deep in side of us we know there is someone we were meant to be."  I hope that I am becoming than person that I feel comfortable with and one who can relax and enjoy life.

That was Elizabeth Kubler-Ross.

She says: " You will never again play this role and experience life as it has been given to you. You will never experience the earth with all it's wonders in this time again.  Don't wait for the last look back at the ocean, the sky, the stars, or your loved ones."

I am so thankful we experience a day of happiness with our dear family.  A lunch in a small café in downtown.  Ben is having a party to celebrate his birthday. that was  earlier in the year.  A sleep over and paint ball game planned for the next day!

Oh to be young and full of energy!
