2014-06-08: Swimming with Cooper

The family went swimming with the Davis-Travises today (Leigh, Wes and Cooper). Nigel and Cooper swam for quite a long time, and Dad for a good while, too. There was a diving board at the pool, and Nigel was very interested in the idea of jumping off. After swimming for a bit and discussing the diving board, Nigel walked right up and out to the end of the board, then turned back after looking down. He encouraged Dad to jump off a few times, then was finally convinced to try it.

At first, he said he didn't jump off, just stepped off the end. As soon as he was in the water, though, he swam right back to the side to do it again. Later on, he said he was brave enough to actually jump off the diving board, and demonstrated the difference to everyone as they watched.
