We had a full day of birthday fun on her actual day. She went to GaGa and Grandpa's for a morning with them and a small cake with lunch. Then she and I headed to Turkey Run for an afternoon of swimming!
She, of course, wanted to go off the diving board. During the second attempt with the lifeguard, he had her swim back to the edge while he swam next to her. He got out of the pool and started to walk away. Wait!!!! this paranoid mom yelled. It's 10 feet deep! But he said that she could swim. After he stood nearby for her third attempt and watching her swim back to the edge on her own, he left and she continued to jump another 20+ times on her own.
We went back and forth between the pool and the diving board. She probably went off 60 times! I was so proud of her. Five years old and such a big, adventurous girl. Wow!
