I finally signed Katelyn up for her first set of swimming lessons. It just so happened that her friend, Samantha, was also going to take lessons, so we signed them up together. Good thing we did, because it was a small class of 4. We were hoping that with a friend, both girls would be willing to do this on their own and not have to have mom in the pool with them. It worked!

One day the big pool was shut down, so they had to wear life vests in the lap pool, which was much deeper than what they were used to

She did great! I think we skipped the first 2 levels that were more entry level stuff and went straight to level 1 and she passed on the first try!!! After seeing her report card, there were a lot of things they worked on that they thought she did really good on. So now when we go to the pool, she is not afraid to go underwater, she knows how to hold her breath, swims going forward even if it is all underwater. She is a regular fish and loves the water.
