SAND!

I am in shock at how a child that literally cries when bathtime is over, even though I've drained all the water out could really just not enjoy any aspect of water outside his bath.

This summer we tried playing in the kiddie pool- didn't like that. We tried going in the lake- that was not as bad but still not great...we tried going in a pool, which was eventually successful but after a lot of determination on my part. And the one thing, I tried to keep him away from was the sand. I HATE SAND. I just don't see the need for all that sand. There's just so much of it, and it gets everywhere.

But of course.. he loves sand. Playing in it, peeing in it and then playing in it, walking on it, and eating it..of course.
