This post is for Blythe Von Sheahan Heimer Schmit

I am not sure why, but literally my daughter has the ability to make my sister laugh hysterically just by walking in the room. Giovanna walks in, Blythe falls over laughing. One thing that seems to amuse her to no end is my daughter's figure in a bathing suit. Why? Well, there are many reasons, but the first is her flat-ish, muscular bottom complete with dimples:

The sight of it just throws Blythe into fits of laughter. The next is how, as Blythe puts it, Giovanna's feet can be 2 feet apart but somehow her thighs still touch:

Now, it doesn't help that I put her in that style of bathing suit. It is not the most flattering. But! my entire thought process when buying her a suit is "How much skin can I cover with bathing suit so she doesn't get a sunburn?". So her bathing suits lack the ruffles and cute cuts of the bikinis her little olive skinned girls wear. There is no way I am exposing Giovanna's belly to the sun. First, it may blind everyone within a mile of her and second.. well there is no second, she is just SO. WHITE.

So combine the white whiteness of her skin with the less flattering cut of her suits.. toss in a muscular yet thin yet somehow rounded little body and..let's put it this way. Blythe is never allowed to be in charge of making sure Giovanna doesn't drown b/c she is too busy wiping the tears of laughter from her face.
