A Little Dip
It has been so hot the last few days. The kids decided to take advantage of our pool and go for a dip. They absolutely love the pool. I am so happy that we are finally in a house and that we have a yard (and a pool) where the kids can play until they drop. And believe me,that is exactly what they do.
Jordan is like a fish in the water. He loves being in the pool. I think his favorite part is running the length of the deck and jumping in. He has perfected his cannonball.
Dakotah isn't as brave as her brother yet. She can just barely touch the bottom. So she uses her floaty ring and has just as much fun as Jordan does. I have tried to get her to jump off the deck but she won't do it. She says that she will and then at the last second she sits down and pushes herself in. I think by summer's end she will have conquered her fears.
Shaelyn is still testing the waters. She will not get in the pool. She sits on the edge or on the ladder and that is it. She doesn't believe me when I tell her that she will float with her life jacket on. I think that once the water is warm enough for me to get in :) she will come in with me and she will see that I was telling her the truth.
