Water Baby

M. Edium loves the water. He loves going to the local wading pool, or the lake, and whenever we stay in a hotel it had better have a pool. He doesn't always get into the tub without argument, but once he's in there you just about have to pry him out. And this is after the water has been drained.

So we've got him signed up for swimming lessons, starting in a few weeks. I've kind of got mixed emotions about it. On the one hand, it'll be good for him to learn and he'll be able to have even more fun in the water, plus he'll be safer.

On the other hand, shoulder-deep water is one of the few places left on earth where I can still count on him to cling to me indefinitely. I'm not entirely looking forward to having to give that up.
