Just Like Me

On my South Carolina vacation we have spent many hours at Fort Jackson.  But when we're not there we're at the pool because my nephew is just like me.  Or the me I used to be when I was his age.  Here is a picture of his and his sister's splash as they jumped in. She likes to swim too.  But my nephew is the first one in and the last one out - just like me.  He spends more time underwater than above water - just like me. He turns somersaults in the water - just like me.   He bobs up and down in the water-just like me.  He never gets bored when he is swimming - just like me. He creates fantasy scenarios in the water and acts them out - just like me.  So even though I'm tired of this hard lawn chair and overheated, I let him swim as much as possible because he is just so gosh darn cute - just like me!
