Darby bears the unfortunate burden of a winter birthday. For a kid, particularly of her age, this is a terrible thing. Contrast that with Shelby's deep-Summer birthday of August, and my nicely timed Fall Classic (October), and well, Darby doesn't much like us for that.
The trouble with a winter birthday is, of course, finding creative new indoor venues since a picnic in the park is inadvisable at best. When she was younger, not so much the big deal perhaps. In these recent years, however, she's begun to notice the shrinking original (to her) possibilities.
But this year, she finally got her summer birthday. So to speak.
We're fortunate to live in a building with an indoor pool. And equally fortunate the management allowed us to push the capacity limits of the small lap pool to have a bunch of screaming pre-adolescent girls running walking around. She had SUCH a blast! Hopefully photos will be published to the album before long.
