Evelyn moved up to the level two swim class today. Apparently, that entails a certificate, even at the tender age of one. What a gifted child. =DAnna Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14235714990355453701noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755286472106611358.post-76340606521469765072016-08-16T09:39:00.000-05:002016-08-16T09:39:16.430-05:00DatedBen was looking for a family photo to put on his teacher website yesterday. This is the most recent picture of the three of us that I could find. Evelyn is three months old here. Perhaps it's time to take a new picture of us!<br />
