I’ve been taping the Olympics for my mom, who doesn’t have cable. Eva is easily influenced by what she sees on TV, I see. After only 20 minutes of watching women’s synchronized diving, she was perched on the couch with her arms outstretched, getting ready to “jump water”. We had to make it very clear to her that the reason they make “big splash” is because they jump into a lot of water, and you NEVER jump unless you have a pool of water to catch you. That seemed to halt the couch-diving idea. Then we watched gymnastics, and soon she was jumping, spinning, and turning somersaults on the carpet.
