Swim Lesson Success

June 28, 2009

My dear sweet Anna E. finished up her private swim lessons yesterday.  I am in complete and utter amazement at the miracle that transpired in one weeks time.  She can successfully swim under water and finished off her session by doing cannonballs off the diving board.  Solo.  We went to the neighborhood pool with some friends yesterday afternoon and I was shocked to look up and see Anna E. walking to the diving board to continue her practice there.  The swim to the side of the pool in 10 foot deep water was quite a bit more lengthy in this pool, so I was a little more than nervous when her feet left the board and a loud “cowabunga” escaped her lips.  No worries though.  She bobbed right back up, and proceeded to swim to the side of the pool using her breaststroke arms and flutter kicks.  She’s got it!

    LOVE it! Tell Miss Anna E I’m so glad she can swim like a fish!! I’m also so glad to see this for selfish reasons…I know there’s a hope for The Reecer – our “water weenie!”
