Henry VanDyke

Erin took snap shots of her and Henry playing in the pool. We now have these three hanging on our wall.

The parenting books tell you that one of your goals as a parent should be helping your kids discover their true passions in life. Henry’s passion is water – playing in it, drinking it, splashing it. So needless to say, he had fun on this day in the pool.

All good parents teach their children to swim, or so we’re told. So we’re getting started early. We took Henry to a class entitled, “Water Babies”. Basically it’s just supervised play time in the pool so the kids get used to playing in the pool. As usual, Henry supplied some cute photos from the experience.

Summer time is in full swing here in Texas so we thought it was time to introduce Henry to the fun of playing in the pool. A quick trip to Target yielded an inflatable pool. Then after putting some of my hot air to good use, we were ready for the water. Initially Henry wasn’t too sure about the pool but he quickly warmed up to it and was splashing away.
