Being a Kid Again
This past weekend I’ve been hanging out at a conference for one of my husband’s side projects and this means the kids and I have had a lot of time on our hands. This of course has involved the hotel pool.
Now here’s the thing to know about this. I have not OWNED a swimsuit in probably 8 years (I’m 28 in case you’re curious). It’s been partly because I’m not a beach/pool kind of girl and also partly because I didn’t like seeing myself in swimsuits. But I knew that with how busy my husband was going to be this weekend, the kids would go crazy if they couldn’t go to the pool. And since they’re still little I knew I’d be in there with them. So off I went to the store to buy a swimsuit and I’ve spent several hours in the pool with the kids.
I’ve felt like a kid all weekend. I’ve always enjoyed getting away and hanging out in a hotel. It feels like an adventure. And I admit it, I’ve really loved the pool. Maybe I’m a beach/pool kind of girl after all.

So glad you had fun! I just bought a new bathing suit too. Surprise, huh? It was on sale, and I’ve vowed to go swimming with the kids this summer. What color is yours? Mine’s hot pink! Not thrilled with the color, but the fit was really good, and it was only $10.
