The Pool Opens

Finally, our local community pool has opened, albeit with limited hours as the majority of the lifeguards are still in school. We ventured there a few days ago on a warm afternoon. With Papa still at work we decided to limit ourselves to the wading pool. After about a half an hour, and a few poolside snacks, the older girls insisted we head over to the big pool. I got in first with the baby, while the other two took turns jumping in and swimming to us. The pool got crowded quickly, and I decided that we should head home before there was an accident. The girls agreed with the promise of a snack from the canteen...and I made a mental note not to return alone this season with all three...
