If she's bringing it up my vote would be to take her up on it and get some counseling together.

Either A she really does just want things to be good between you as a co parent or B she feels like she isn't exactly happy and is testing the waters of having you in her life again. If you were a beginner on these boards everyone would be telling you to take advantage of that counseling time together to show your best self. You don't have to go into it with your hopes up that things will work out, but you can take what she can give and see where it leads you.

Plus, the more you are in her life, even as a co parent, the more she's likely to think of you for decisions like swimming lessons.
