{Just Keep Swimming}

Lauren did swimming lessons again this summer. She loved going but still has a "healthy" fear of the water! I kept bribing her with things, but I still could not convince her to jump in without holding on to Miss Mary or to swim farther than a short distance. She improved on her floating, breathing and using her arms and going under for the rings were a piece of cake. Towards the end of the session, I think she was finally realizing she was tall enough and that it was fun to stand in the shallow end without holding on to the step.









So although it is her 3rd session, she is still is missing a few requirements from Level 2. I think she will get it next year though! Plus I think if we swam more frequently she would not be as scared and it would all be easier. I guess we need to get a pool!
