55 Minutes
We began preparations for the swimming pool at 12:02 p.m. We actually left for the swimming pool at 12:57 p.m. Here is my interpretation of the 55 minutes in between.
Where is your swimsuit? Put on your swimsuit!
Where is your sister? Erica? Erica!
Where are your sandals? Put on your sandals!
Where is your sister? Erica? Erica!
Where is your towel? Go find your towel!
Where is your sister? Erica? Erica!
Where is the sunscreen? Stand still while I put on sunscreen!
Where is your sister? Erica? Erica!
Where is mommy’s phone? Give me back my phone!
Where is your sister? Erica? Erica!
Where is your floatie? Go get your floatie!
Where is your sister? Erica? Erica!
Do you have to potty? Go potty now!
Where is your sister? Erica? Erica!
Where did your sandals go? Put your sandals back on!
Where is your sister? Erica? Erica!
Where is my sanity? Give me back my sanity!
Are we ready to go? Are we? Hooray!

Oh how familiar this sounds although we do a slightly older version here. By the time we are done getting all the equipment and slathering on all the sunscreen, I definitely need to cool off in the pool!! Sure glad I am not the only one who has trouble organizing what should be a “simple” activity!
Yes, once we got in the pool it felt great! So worth it. 🙂
