Our Future Olympian

Last night we watched "60 Minutes" featuring an interview by Cooper Anderson with Michael Phelps. JMS was ready for bed, drinking his milk, while sitting on the couch with us. I asked him, "do you know how to swim?" He slinked off the couch, laid on the floor in front of us, and began kicking his feet. Then, his dad says, "you need to use your arms, too!" So, I got up to show him how to move his arms. He stood up, and started trying to take off his shirt. I said, "do you really need to take off your shirt to swim?" He said, "uh huh." So, I helped him take off his shirt. He went back to simulating how to swim on the floor. Then, he stood up again, and tried to take off his pants. I said, "do you really need to take off your pants to swim?" He said, "uh huh." Then he proceeded to "swim" on our living room floor.

Michael...do you really have to swim in a speedo? My son was ready for bed and is now stripped down to his diaper imitating how to win a gold medal in the 1000m free. How about the full body suit next time?
