Swim Lessons - Day 4

A bit of a breakthrough today at Reese's swim lesson. No, she didn't swim the length of the pool unassisted...no, she didn't shave any time off of her PR in the 50m...no, she didn't retrieve all of the dive sticks from the bottom of the deep-end in a single breath...BUT, she did go through the whole lesson with barely any crying! It's all relative folks.

Reese actually appeared to understand what it is she's supposed to be doing. Her kicking was much more spirited. She reached for Ms. Kelly and the wall with equal amounts of determination, she didn't swallow any water and she looked soo darn cute throughout the whole thing! With only 4 lessons under her belt, I imagine that at the end of the 4th or 5th week there won't be any dive sticks left at the bottom of the deep end.

Kicking, but not screaming


The fear has been replaced with fun


She's gettin' it now

Gettin' ready for Daycare in the back of the car
