Oh What Do You Do in the Summertime?


The kids love to swim in Gramma's pool whenever they get a chance. They love it when it's "Gramma's Day Off" because they know they'll get to play Poison Finger, Stir the Pot, and Baby Dolphins with her. (She so has the 'fun' gene. I think that skipped a generation with me....) All of the girls are getting so adept and comfortable in the water. Leah even likes to scare Gramma and have a go in the pool without a floatie. Roman is still not too sure about the whole swimming thing. He doesn't feel very comfortable getting in the water if there are more than two other kids in there. Mel doesn't like to be splashed because she is convinced that once the water goes in her ear it will never come out again. (You should see her with her headband she wraps snugly around her ears afterward.) Hali's favorite games are diving for the diving sticks, although she gets a teasing streak once in a while and likes to pull Gramma's leg and give her a surprise dunk. Watch out, Hali. Paybacks!
