My Little Nemo

Travis doing his airplane (picture taken a week before passing)

So i posted a blog awhile back about Travis being enrolled in Swim Lessons and how horrible they were in the begining. BUT last night he passed the first level! i know some of you are thinking big deal, but to me its a huge deal and i am so proud of him (i even felt the need to tell him a thousand times while squeezing him and kissing him). So here is how it played out. CSP never takes Travis to swim class, but last night he says to me "i will take him so you can get to bed early". I thought to myself, i must have the best bf, for letting me go to bed early after working all day. Sweet... bedtime at 330 here i come. Then i hear from a friend that MJ has passed away and i cant sleep. 4:05 my bedroom door flys open and Travis comes running into my room to tell me that he has passed and he got his medal. Tears are building up in my eyes (not sure if its because i missed it, and i never miss anything when it comes to my son, or because i am so proud of him) but i cant let travis see me cry soooo i start squeezing him and kissing him and telling him how proud i am of him. i think he asked me about 30 times "mommy are you proud of me?", so i keep telling him "of course mommy is proud of you".

and on a side note... travis has been swimming all by himself, those trips to the "fun" pool were well worth it...

now i have my own nemo... just hope he doesn't go touching any "butts"!


Oh yeah really wish i had a picture to post but like i said, i missed seeing him get his medal :(
