Swimming in the Rain

CJ went to his second swim meet yesterday, the Winter Championships at the Mission Valley YMCA. After they got all warmed up by doing some laps, every swimmer stood around the pool for the opening theme song of the Village People's "YMCA".


CJ enjoyed that part. What he didn't enjoy was the rain that started soon after, and got worse as his race was about to start. It was a cold rain too, and windy. We were all miserable.

And into the pool he goes for the 100m freestyle. Aren't I the best mom, to be out in the rain taking pictures of my little swimmer?

Luckily the rain stopped for his next race, the 50m backstroke.

He prefers the freestyle, but I think the backstroke is his best event.

Way to go CJ!!
