Pool time

Spent about 3 hours in the pool. The snack jello I packed melted and nephew drank it like juice. Niece eventually got all the way into the pool (once I refused any requests like singing the Jaws theme or do a somersault). The water reached her chest so she was assured she will not drown. She clung to the edge in fear and eventually let go. She wished Mom who left for a massage was there, this was her first time standing in the pool instead of sitting on the steps in fear. We took a picture. Nephew enjoyed tossing the beach ball and niece mastered hitting it back like a volleyball (like I was doing). Then I checked the watch and thought we better leave. Sister took us out for dinner as a thank you for babysitting (and nephew tearing my apartment to pieces which I had to put back). We had a good time. Sister liked my hair. I bet she really hates it b/c I cut it myself, but learned to tell any woman her hair looks nice or she will get upset. Anyway, walked Precious in the dark when it got cooler and now it is starting to rain again. Time for bed.
