A Little Chilly

stylized photos of Mikey freezing in the pool but smiling wide!

This happens every May.  We open the pool in case we get a warm day or two and Mikey wants to get in the pool right away!

journal entry: "I swam in the cold pool. Brrr!" 3 photos of Mikey in the pool, clearly cold but having a great time.

I throw on a sweatshirt and bring my book outside (because there’s no way I’m swimming in freezing cold weather).

Evidence of prior craziness in the link below.
