The Poolside Turtle

The Poolside Turtle… And  A Twist… Of course I couldn’t go a whole week without mentioning some fun with my girls!  Well, yesterday, “D” and I caught our daughter Julia doing one of the oddest things…

As we were sitting poolside, much to our disappointment, Julia had found, yet another floatation device to use in the pool.  Every time Julia finds something to help her stay afloat in water, she regresses with her ability to swim by herself. Somehow though, Julia is always able to “borrow” some poor child’s floatation device… most likely through some sort of bargaining or possibly a quiet threat. Yesterday was no different from most days and “D” and I watched Julia as she made her way through the deep end with yet another floatie.

As she swam past us, we got a cute little wave from Julia and then she went back to some serious swimming… That was, until we watched her showing off in front of a pretty lifeguard.  Although unsure of what she was trying to do, I will leave you this… It’s a picture of baby Julia, doing what we now call… drum roll please… The Poolside Turtle
