Before supper tonight, Peter and I took the kids into the pool. The temperature outside was 22 degrees and the water was 26.5. They promised me 27 degrees when I was on the deck but it dropped once I was in. I told Reid that she’d be warmer if she kept her body in the water but she doubted me when I was only wet to the waste. Since I didn’t want her cold, wet body on mine, I took the plunge and got wet, too. Turns out I wasn’t lying when I said what I did.
Melissa wouldn’t come in ’cause she said she was a “suck”. I told her maybe she was just “sane”. I think she may have missed out on the fun of one last swim. Or maybe there’ll be another. Reid and I will be in the pool if the opportunity arises when we’re around.
