We are very fortunate to live about 5 minutes away from a neat little park and lake. I grew up going to this lake...swimming, tubing, water skiing (yes, I used to do that), looking for fish and frogs and turtles....so it's neat to be able to take the girls and explore.
However, our girls are not ones to enjoy playing IN the water, but on the shore NEXT to the water. The past two weekends Terry and I have made it a point to get them comfortable IN the water. These pictures reflect that.






how are they handeling the fish in the same water they are in? water comfort at an early age is priceless! Ryan never had the exposure and he HATES the water. Our kids have a pool in their back yard and they have grown leaps and bounds in it. Maybe a walmart easy set up pool next year? Check craigslist!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on seeing the need and making the point! there are many parents out there that don't!
