To the Pool

We brought AJ to the children’s pool in the father’s school last Friday. As usual, he hesitated to go into the water. This was his second time to the pool, but first time wearing swimwear, so I can understand his anxiety. So we had to carry him & go into the water, & slowly dipped him in as & when. Ultimately, he found that the water was no threat to him. He eventually reckoned that it was safe for him to stand & walk in the pool, playing with the water.

We deliberately chose the pool in the father’s school because we can literally have the pool all to ourselves (there was only 1 other adult swimming in the adults’ pool). The life guard was feeling bored when we were about to leave.

AJ has enjoyed playing in the children’s pool so we would most probably go there more often.
