Last year, Carlee wouldn't even jump into the pool to us if we caught her. This year, she is jumping and diving and "swimming" all over. She has lost her fear but I have gained it. She is at the point where she feels confident in herself but isn't really a strong swimmer with any technique but refuses to wear any floating devices so obviously it's time for swimming lessons again. She was in a much more advanced class with older kids and really turned a corner. I definitely have to keep my eye on her but she can hold her own in the pool. Way to go, sweetheart!
Taking her 10 breaths to warm up
Miss Janette taught them how to survive in an accident by blowing up their clothes and using them as a floatation device until they were rescued. Jake's khaki pants were the perfect device!
Elementary Back Stroke--"Chicken, Scarecrow, Person"
Back Stroke--Carlee's favorite
Lining up for the races with a 13-year-old behind her. Go, Carlee, go!
We love Ms. Janette and can't wait to see her next summer!
