What a little water baby we have! Sam got his first introduction to a swimming pool today, and he did great! There was no crying, no clinging to my neck and no whining. Believe me, with the way this week has gone, no whining is a minor miracle – no matter where we are.
We played in the pool for over an hour. Grand worked with him, showing him how to kick, kick, kick his feet, blow bubbles in the water, and do shovels. He liked making shovels and pushing the water away. He made his “crab” sound while doing shovels, which, yes, is just another growl. I had no idea so many creatures in nature were such growlers; he’s taught me so much.
Sam is signed up for swimming lessons July 21st-25th, so we’ve got some time to work with him before that begins. What fun we have ahead of us!
