Carter and Archie had their first indoor swim lesson last night- an effort to maintain the swim skills gained over the summer.
Archie was less than thrilled with the prospect of getting in the water without me. I was less than thrilled with the prospect of chasing him around a deep diving pool while Carter takes lessons though, so I was committed to selling him on his teacher and the experience in general.
As I gesticulated and smiled persuasively while urging him back to his very sweet teacher, I noticed a couple of parents . . . . not just looking at us, but quite openly laughing at us. “Well,” I thought, “they just don’t remember trying to convince a three-year-old to like swim class.” I went on, listing the merits of winter swim time, including that for the first time, Archie can swim without a swim diaper, now having “toilet learned,” and got to wear a cool pair of jungle swim trunks instead of the more cumbersome full body sunscreen suits of summertime.
Then Archie backed away to escape my grasp and I looked down to see his penis draped over the elastic of his swim trunks, free of anything so constraining as a swim diaper or full-body sunscreen suit. The other parents’ laughter suddenly made sense.

I’M NOT READING THIS (hands over ears) “OH SAY CAN YOU SEE …”
That’s hysterical!!!
Thank heavens Archie isn’t old enough to be embarassed by this! What a funny story.
