Yesterday, I got up the nerve to jump all the way into the ditch and swim. It was hard and then I suddenly rolled over. I'm not sure what happened but mom said the current in the ditch must have done it. I got back to the other side ok but that was a little scary.
Then I was scared to go back into the water. I really, really wanted to go in but it was scary. I went down to the edge and got my feet in and tried but I just couldn't for several tries. I kept trying and wouldn't give up. I whimpered in frustration.
Finally, I got up the nerve and jumped in. I got to the other side of the ditch and climbed out. Mom called me back, so I jumped nearly across the ditch and swam to the other side and got out. Success! Whoo hoo! I did it!
After that, I knew I could do it and it was so much fun, I just wanted to go in again and again. It gave me tons of energy. I ran really fast with the truck again.
Today, mom was busy with her sister so I got to go to the land with her brother-in-law and Pete. I jumped right into the ditch several times.
Just before it got dark, we got to go again with mom this time. I jumped in again and again. It is so much fun to swim and chase a stick in the water. Then after that, I ran with the truck. They said I got up to 27mph today! Pete won't go all the way into the water but we have a good romp.
