Months before school ended, the kids were talking about going on the waterslides in Kusadasi. I promised we would that first week with their Baba. They've been asking since we got here, but because of poorly applied sun block on the first beach day - I've been fully clothing them and limiting their time outdoors.
We went today - and I was diligent in applying and reapplying the sunblock every couple of hours, as well as sitting in the shade through the highest sun. All three love the water - and the slides and pools are just right for them. They had sun shirts on and hats - and they seemed to be all right.
There are many big waterslides there that we've never been on because we spend most of our time in the the kiddy pool with all its colorful slides and fountains, the pirate ship, or the splash pads.
And that's just how its supposed to be.
Teoman and Tomris were endless in their games running round and round. They have found each other as good friends this summer. They always have, they still fight, but it was dear seeing them play together. (It also made me yearn for another child - something I've half joked about since Tuana was born: oh, I'm going to miss this... the numbers are uneven, we should have another boy (as if this could be arranged - Teoman needs a brother, Tuana needs a close sibling like the other two.)
