One of the activities we attended during our vacation in Cagayan de Oro was a pool party courtesy of my college buddy Erwin. It was actually a mini-reunion plus his wife’s advance birthday celebration. I initially do not have plans to let Bella swim in the pool because she have colds that time but since we were already there and also due to the encouragement of everyone around, I allowed Bella to play in the pool side.

She did enjoy playing in the water letting her feet get wet at first and eventually her hand and finally her whole body as well. Since I was not planning to let her swim, I did not bring her swimsuit but let her wear a dress and leggings instead. Her Ninang Lucille was making fun of her swimming outfit. Lol!

It was raining that night and although she’s obviously feeling cold, Bella was so hesitant to get out of the pool. She enjoyed playing with Ate Mika, my first inaanak and Ate Nonon, Mika’s younger sister . While a little worried about her colds, I was also delighted and proud to see that Bella is not afraid of water but rather enjoyed it. It was a revelation for me and I consider this experience as another milestone in Bella’s life.
Thank you Marie for the First Comment…

If only Bella could speak, I'm sure she'd say, "Buti na lang hindi KJ ang Mommy ko."
She definitely looked happy and had fun in the pool, Rovz
