Why People Buy Pools

Rebecca has been talking about getting a small wadding pool for Hannah for almost a year. I personally didn’t see it as “must-have” item. How much fun can 4 inches of water be for a toddler, right? I figured that she would try it once, not like it, and then we would have a 4-foot plastic bowl in the garage for years to come.

As it turns out, the purple wadding pool we picked up a couple of weeks ago was the best $5.00 we’ve ever spent. Hannah loves the pool. She will happily sit in it until she is one big bundle of pruned baby flesh. She likes standing in the water, sitting in the water, falling in the water, and splashing any person or dog who wanders too near.
