Just keep swimming

In preparation for our Florida trip, I thought it would be a great idea for the girls to have swimming lessons. So four weeks out of the summer break they swam everyday, Monday to Friday. The first session, Kianna swam and passed with flying colors and went from youth 1 to youth 3. She skipped a lesson. As for Madison, she didn't pass but, don't get me wrong, you can see the determination on her face that she wanted to learn how to swim. She was just stiff as a board. After finding out she didn't pass, I decided to go to family swims with the girls and practice Madison to float. All I said to her was, "relax and pretend your sleeping in bed on a pillow" and a few seconds later she was floating. She was so proud. She couldn't wait to tell her dad. So on to the second 2 week session, of course little miss fishy, Kianna, passed again and this time so did Madi! Just look at her face!!! She was proud of her accomplishment and so were we.
