Emily has been DYING to go swimming. Weather has been total crap. So it's sunny out but the pool is freezing. (68 deg)
"I wanna go swimming!"
"No it's too cold"
"I wanna go swimming!"
"No it's too cold"
"I wanna go swimming!"
"No it's too cold"
"I wanna go swimming!"
"Fine"
She jumps in without even testing it. Now I think the autism comes in handy as she has somewhat reduced sensory for pain...and apparently freezing cold water.
She's SHIVERING but having a blast.
"Are you cold? Do you want to get out?"
"NOPE!!"
Happy as a clam
She lasted a good 15 mins before she was done. Lips were nearly blue. And she got out quite reluctantly...
At least she's happy. All that matters....
