Dear diary, I know that I already wrote today but something HUGE just happened and I just HAD to write again! Mom and I went in the pool for a second time today since there is still no one else around using it. Well, started sitting on the step like we have been doing then it happened.... My front paws were flopped over on mom's arms and she had her other arm under my back legs and oh my dog, she started walking in the water WITH ME with her! At first I was so not sure of this new thing, but mom kept talking to me and giving me kisses and before you know it I had my chin on her shoulder and was just hanging out IN the water. After awhile mom didn't even have her arm under my back legs and I was floating with only my front paws on mom's arms! HOLY WOW!!! We were in for a long time, mom said over an hour. Then she thought I wanted to get out so she started for the steps and you know what I did.... I swam all by myself to the steps (it was only a little ways, but who cares, I did it all by myself!!) mom was right with me the whole time and I wasn't even scared one little bit! I ran around for a couple minutes and then guess what I did next...... I about jumped right back in the water with mom! Since I wasn't at the steps when I tried to do this mom helped me back in and we floated and hung out again for awhile. It was so great, this pool thing isn't so bad after all! I can't wait to get back in there again, woohoo!! Yup, that's right, I am now Binx, Water Dog!! :)
