Day 7 - These Are The Swings

[Update: When you read the title of this post you should be saying it just like Kurtis Blow does in his song "The Breaks"]

Swings are awesome.

Even when your whole job is to push, all they do is laugh so it feels like youre really doing something great...

However, this experience - which ended in non stop laughter - started with a genuine "Oh crap" moment.

I told Summer to put herself on a swing while I helped Ethan jump on his...Next thing I hear is a "thud" and I look over to see Summer on her back, feet resting on the swing, with that "I'm about to freak out and cry" look on her face...

She freaks out and cries.

I pick her up and try to make the "Hey why are you on your back and covered in dirt?" joke...She doesn't laugh. I think she raised her fist at me actually.

She eventually stops crying.

We proceed to swing.

For some reason as I push Summer she likes to say "Here we GO" and Ethan likes to say "Smushy"

So here I was running back forth saying

"Here we Goooo" "Smushy" "Here we goooo" "Smuuuushy"

Needless to say, I've never felt or looked cooler...

PS - Ethan rocked cleats for this adventure...which cracked me up
