Accomplishment

I am feeling like a very proud mother right now. My quirky little boy who does not like the beach also does not like the pool. This weekend we tried it out and there were only about 5 minutes of not whining in the pool. Well this was just not ok with me. What child does not like the pool! He loves the bath so we discussed that it was just a big bath but that did not work. He did not like the baby pool or the big pool. So yesterday afternoon I was determined to take him to the pool because in my head the more we went the more he would be used to it. So we got to the pool tried the baby pool again..... nope. Then we went to the big pool and i just sat on the steps and slowly went down one step at a time. he would sit with me and we would move down one. Then all of a sudden he was in the water and he was happy! It was great! He even got brave enough to jump off the side of the pool to me over and over. He just giggled and laughed. Our summer may not be so bad after all! Oh and he even got in the baby pool and loved it on the way out! Now that is a feeling of accomplishment!

Sorry no pictures.... I was in the pool the whole time!
