We have been blessed to have wonderful friends with pools. Summer days mean pool days! We've been hanging out at the DiMarcs since Alette was 6 months old-this is the first year Abria is joining us. She is still a solid napper but can give up the occasional afternoon without severe consequences. She has taken to the water like a fish and is determined to hit the deepend soon. When I catch her trying to swim out past my reach she states 'Mommy, you no see me okay?'. Alette in the meantime is also venturing out (something that has taken her a very long time). It helps that the other little girls there are a year or two older and she so desperately loves to be with them. So while they all jump off the diving board, she steps on it, shakes in nervous anticipation, then gets off and slips into the water by the side. I'm trying not to interfere....I'm sure I'll miss her first jump in.
