Mom, Can I Have the Honor?

That's what Monica said when she saw me filling up the pool.

I was so surprised by her question that I didn't respond at first.

Then she gently took the hose from my hand and said,
"Please, Mom? Can I please have the honor?"

How could I resist?!

So she filled up the pool.

And we had our first swim of the season!

Monica named the floatie Miss Dragon.

Of course, Leah had to join the fun...

Ryan had a great idea to put the umbrella shade from the lawn table near the pool to block the sun so little Miss Leah can join the fun without being in danger of burning. She is so much fairer than Monica and me.
So if you want to come over and play with us, bring your swim gear!
