Aaron and I have been waiting for the perfect opportunity to let Korben swim in a "real" pool for the first time. Today was the day! A precious couple in our church has given us an open invitation to their pool. God bless them. We had so much fun. The first few minutes didn't go so well because Aaron just jumped right in the water. It really scared Korben. I can't imagine what his little brain processed in that moment. He had never seen a pool before, and all of a sudden daddy just jumped right in. Actually, he dove in! It took a good 5-10 minutes for Korben to realize his daddy was okay. We just sat on the side of the pool, and he eventually began to splash his toes in the water. Then he wanted to stand up and splash. At that point, we knew he was ready to sit inside his float. He loved it! I was a little nervous how our first experience would play out considering the meltdown at the beginning, but it turned out to be a FABULOUS first experience. OH, and an added bonus for Korben. He got to meet a new doggie friend named "Emma." He loved her soooo much!
