Splash!

Yesterday and the past few days were stormy weather. Today, the sun was finally out again. It wasn't the warmest, but Nolan wanted to do something summer-ish. I blew up the kiddy pool. It took FOREVER and my cheeks are still hurting from blowing so much. I spent more time blowing it up than they did playing in it, but oh well. They had fun splashing in the freezing cold water.

When it was just about blown up I told Nolan to go ahead and change in his swimming shorts. He came out with them on and his shirt still on. He said that he wasn't going to take his shirt off til right before he got in the pool otherwise "it would be immodest and that would be a step down!" :P A couple of weeks ago for FHE we talked about choices and how when you make good choices it's like climbing up the stairs and when you make bad choices it's like climbing down the stairs, etc. So, ever since then he's been very conscious about making sure he doesn't start "going down the stairs."
