Swim lessons

This morning I finally tracked down my relatives with whom I needed to compare schedules. We want to trade children sometime in July and I needed to know when. With that issue settled, I sat down to schedule swim lessons. I discovered that there were no times available where I could put four kids into four swim levels all during the same half hour. I am not interested in running over to the pool multiple times on the same day, so this presents a problem. I presented the problem to the kids and we all agreed that instead of official lessons, we’ll just go swimming once per week for the rest of the summer. This will cost about as much as the swim lessons would have and I suspect that the kids will actually have more fun. Now I just need to follow through on the “once per week” promise.

    I read this and thought, “Wait, you can do that? It’s a good thing my parents never knew. They’d have traded me for a new car in a heartbeat. Or a used car. Or a bicycle. Maybe even some used bicycle parts.”

    Yes. But you’re only allowed to trade children for children. And the arrangement is only temporary. In this case I’ll get two for one. Two nephews in exchange for Kiki. Believe me, at the end of four days I’ll be very glad to trade back.
