Clara set Thumbelina down on the counter and then grabbed a bowl. She placed that next to the sink and climbed onto a chair so that she could fill it. "Do you want the water warm or cool?"

*She wandered along the counter.* Cool, I think.

Clara nodded and filled the bowl. Realizing that Thumbelina had no way of getting up, she took a stack of plates and arranged them like stairs. "Here you are! Your own private swimming pool!" she announced proudly.

*She giggled and ascended the stairs gracefully, diving into the bowl as soon as she reached the top.* Ooh, it's so neat!

Clara giggled as some of the droplets splashed her. "I'm glad you like it."

*Thumbelina climbed out onto the plates and did a flip into the water.*

Ok! *She hopped out again and then did a cannon ball, making the water slop over the sides of the bowl.*

"Woa! Careful! I don't want to get in trouble with Mommy." She took a cloth and wiped away the water.

Whoops! Sorry. *She paddled around in the water, looking like a toy.*

Yep! *She smoothed her wet hair out of her face.*

She frowned. "Now I want to go swimming, too!"

*Thumbelina frowned too, treading the water.* Well, let's go somewhere that you can swim, too!

She shook her head. "I already took a bath today. Besides, there aren't many places you can swim. The Opera has a lake, but that's guarded by a siren."
