Today my beautiful friend Mandy met us at the pool and we had an amazing time. Oh, it was the perfect day for the pool! It was cooler than two days ago when we went--only 85f instead of 99f. Also there was some cloud coverage. It was just perfect to lay in the pool with her and chat and hang with my husband and all the kids. We all had a smashing time and Becky finally tried the waterslide which she loved.
I don't even know what else we did. Today was such a blur. Brian did the grocery shopping before swimming and Esther Rose took a beautiful 1.5 hour nap after swimming. I read my new book The Eustace Diamonds while she slept. Yes, I finished The Castle of Otranto and honestly, while I loved it halfway through by the end it was reminding me to much of Lady Macbeth. The twists at the end!! It was definitely a novel for an adult. My new book though is entirely consuming and entertaining.
What a day.
The only picture I got was one of Esther Rose enjoying a chicken sandwich. Hah!
The pool was barely populated today, When we got there we even had it mostly to ourselves for a few minutes!
Definitely a day to remember.
Now that I am home and clean and the dinner dishes are put away I think we very much need a break from the pool. I don't know what next week holds but it probably doesn't hold much swimming.
I also took a break from testing my blood sugar for today which was nice.
God is so good and daily I try to renew my trust in him. Only four weeks of summer break left!!
