What to do when you're afraid of the pool

What to do when you're afraid of the pool...put a chair in it! Matney doesn't like to sit in her pool even though she loves the bath. Once all the playgroup kiddos were gone Monday I took Matney back outside and put her chair in the pool. The water was just to the top of her feet and she loved to splash. We stayed outside for a long time while she said, "kick, kick, kick".

Too bad that I don't have pictures from the end of this adventure. Grandma walked inside, Matney got upset and dive bombed out of the chair into the pool. She was soaked and I had to put the camera down to pick her up (and get soaked myself). It may be a while before she's willing to try again!
