jumping off the diving board

This is what you get to do at the neighborhood pool when the season is nearly finished, the lifeguards have stopped caring, and the only people there are you and the Wittwers.

Note: Christian is wearing a Puddle Jumper. I highly recommend it. For $17.99 I totally bought myself some freedom this summer -- he stopped clinging to me within a week and and I no longer stress about him jumping in (since he was more than willing to do it with or without gear). Bonus: It's U.S. Coast-Guard certified so he wore it on my parents' boat this summer too.
