So I took Ava to the indoor pool/waterpark thing today. We went there once before last winter, when she was about one. She liked it, but was a bit finnicky at the time. Cold, wet, scary big kids...
She was introduced to being in the ocean in utero... lol... I was snorkeling 24/7 on our babymoon to Trinidad/Tobago (et al) and she was plunked into the water at 4 months, as we have a boat and spend our summers on/in the water. Lots of lakes, rivers, pools, ocean in mexico... she's been in water.
mucho.
So back to today... this kid was a FISH ! she was going down the lil' tube waterslide thing BY HERSELF backwards, forwards, turned around... dunking under when I caught her, "swimming" to the side with my encouragement... I couldn't get her out. She never cares about water in her face, will blow bubbles in it, etc.
She's a Pisces. And I usually laugh at this stuff. but the kid is REALLY comfortable in the water. like, freaky weird with it.
How much is our nurture and gentle exposure, and how much is her sign? lol.
Does your kid live up to their horoscope? how or why not?
Re: Do you subscribe to traits of horoscope signs?
Garrison is a crab and well...sometimes she is pretty darn crabby ; )
I hope she'll take to water, I'm scared to death of it. We have plans for her to take a class and have already decided that DH or MIL will have to take her b/c she will definitely pick up on my anxiety otherwise. Of course, otherwise, the Crab is self-absorbed supposedly and well, I can't fathom how she is going to avoid that with us telling her she is the greatest thing since sliced bread 24/7....so I think some of it is nurture after all....
I usually buy into it all. I need to look at virgo (God I hope they live up to their sign) hehehehehehe
That sounds so damn adorable though!
