Slice of Life — March 23: The OC

Today we took Wesley to The OC, a community center in Ozark that includes an indoor pool with a great area for little kids. The area includes several fountains, a small slide, a large fort-like structure, and a big bucket that fills with water and then empties, dumping water on everyone in the pool beneath it. 

We discovered The OC last month when my nephew had his birthday party there. Wesley had a blast then and it was hard to get him out of the water. We told him then that we would bring him back. Earlier this week Wesley began talking about wanting to go to the “water park” as he calls it. He was super excited when we arrived, especially since we were the only people there. He loved playing in the fountains with my husband and would scream with delight when the water would spray him. Just like last time, he loved watching the big bucket fill with water and then empty with a crash. At the same time, he was still terrified of the water dumping on him, and he made sure he was far away from it when it emptied. 

It was fun to watch Wesley have such a good time. His smile and laughter is worth a million dollars!
