Joyful Monday Swimming!!

   Children grow up so fast! Last saturday we went swimming at a pool that we have not been to in a while. Actually we haven't been there since Lilly started crawling and knee walking. The pool was filled with tones of other children but the major change for Lilly was how she interacted in the water!
   With a life vest swim suite on, (for safety reasons) Lilly was able to do things in the water she has never been able to. I joyfully watched her crawl in the pool. She splashed, babbled, and squealed in delight over being able to touch and manipulate the water in a new way. The best part for her was being able to go down the the log water slide by herself!

    Today I find joy in watching my daughter explore swimming in a new way with her new mobility. It brings such joy into my heart to see her growing and changing. Today I ask you what you find joyful?

Have A Joyful Monday!

  1. I went for a swim with my god daughter a while ago when he was only a baby and it was amazing seeing her react to the water.

    Thanks so much for linking up :)

  2. Lovely post! I find joy in the bright sunshine today, even though it is below zero! A sunny day beats a grey day!

  3. I just read your guest post Instead of Speaking, Reach To God on 31 Days to a Better Marriage...
    I just wanted you to know that it spoke volumes to me. I am struggling with letting control be a thing of my past!
    Thanks for sharing your story!
