We took the boat up to the lake this week, and hubby convinced E. to be his partner in “jumping into the water from up high”. I stayed dry and attempted to capture the event on film, as the weather wasn’t too nice that day.
Here they are on the dock:
And daddy dives in:
E. spent a long time working up her nerve to jump.
And she does it! (Notice daddy, AKA rescue swimmer, has put on a wetsuit…yes, the water was that cold.)
And it was fun!
WaHoo! Way to go, E! Here’s what she has to say about it (she wanted to type, I helped with spelling):
DADDY WAS IN THE WATER WHEN I JUMPED OFF THE DOCK. IT WAS FUN!
Looks like you all had fun – the way your little girl was holding her nose as she jumped in was sooooo cute!
Oh my goodness what awesome pictures, they really capture the moments and feelings. What a brave little E:)
Woohoo!! You did it!! And your Mama got it on film!
Priceless! How fun.
What a brave girl! She looks absolutely thrilled with herself after.
