summer, swimming and so forth
Description
I love summer! It brings with it warm weather, swimming, braai’s, beach time and a whole lot of fun!
The sprogs are loving having a swimming pool. They are both starting to get quite brave. I think that Jess is on her way to swimming… hopefully by the end of summer. Today for the first time, she put her face in the water and let me out her under completely without moaning! I’m so proud of her. Here’s hoping that she just grows in confidence now. She put her face in with my brother, Simon. I’ve been a swimming teacher for 10 years, but with your own sprogs its very different. You cant push them like you push somebody else’s children, and they wont let you push them either. But they all come right and learn to swim in their own time. and by the looks of things jessie’s time is coming 
Jack is so incredibly brown. Most people that see him make comments about being jealous of his golden brown. He has the perfect beach bum look going: dark tan, white-blonde hair and a cheeky grin. He is such a little monkey. Most days he tests my patience and we have a battle of wills, but he is still a big ball of fun!
My tiniest sprog is growing up so fast. i cant believe that she is already nearly 4 months old! Soon she will be sitting and crawling, then comes standing and walking… at this rate, i should just plan her 21st! 
She is such a happy, chilled baby… as long as mommy isnt too far away for too long and she is in on the action. #rd children definitely seem to grow-up faster.
As a completely random ending, I had a dream last night about Jesus returning. It was so real that I woke-up crying. I dreamt that we were swimming in the pool and suddenly a circle of light appeared in the sky. The circle glowed brightly and then it was night. Stars were falling from the heavens in balls of orange fire, and I knew that Jesus was returning. I stood in the pool and wept for Him to save me, i begged His forgiveness for being such a terrible person and not doing enough for Him. I begged Him to forgive me for all the lies I’ve told, people I hurt and horrid things that I’ve done. I remember thinking in my dream that I’d left too late, I was too bad to be saved. But He will save us if we ask Him to. I need to re-connect with my Father, I need to press into His word and try to see if there was meaning in my dream or if I’m reading into it too much. Perhaps He wants me to be prepared, be more sincere… ?
