We went back to Miss Stephanie again this year for swim lessons. And for the first time, Curly-Q was really excited about it. And what progress! Last summer, she would hardly get her face wet at all.
She loves to jump off the side!
Amazing the difference a year makes. She didn't mind her face getting wet much at all.
Here she is working on her straight leg kicks with the kickboard and getting her face in the water.
She is a very strong back swimmer and can float on her back very well.
And a HUGE accomplishment for her this year is that she learned to get dive sticks from the bottom of the shallow end. She was always wheeling and dealing with Miss Stephanie to get out of doing it, but she eventually started doing it and was so proud of herself. Miss Stephanie said we should start saving for law school since she likes to bargain with people so much.
Now her fear is gone. She is swimming on her own with help, excited to go underwater and look at things, and get things off the bottom. So proud of her!
I love that she even has a memory verse at swimming lessons.
The Lord will fight for you, you only need to be still.
Exodus 14:14
