Enjoying It While I Can

The pool. When it's over 95 degrees, it's just wonderful to float weightlessly, eyes shut, world tuned out.

We're working on getting Milo to learn how to float, but he thinks the pool is scary because it's so big. He has learned how to put his head back and get his hair wet. Now if we could just get his body to follow. He has to learn to trust the water. It'll come.

I wish it were easy to find a pool everywhere. Swimming or aerobics in water is the best exercise of all when your knees are bad and arthritis is sneaking in everywhere.
