Fish, Mermaids, Dolphins...

These are the sea creatures that the girls have used to describe themselves as they take their swimming lessons. We've been through one whole week of lessons and begin our second week this week. The ladies are loving being able to swim every single day and I am loving that there are other people in charge of their learning. They all do so much better with their teachers, Miss Lisa and Mr. Cody, and are much more successful without me as their swim teacher. Thank goodness. We have had some big successes already in only one week. Molly was moved from the Mommy and Me class to Sydney's group. This was probably more of a kindness given to me so I wouldn't have to be at the pool for 2 sessions of swimming lessons in a row...but, Molly is doing SO much better with her teacher. Hallelujah. Gracie Claire has passed her swimming test which has been her goal since last summer. The pool we go to makes kids pass a swimming test to be able to use the huge water slide. She has been more than capable of passing it for a while now, but her courage was a little lacking. Her cool swimming teacher, Mr. Cody, got her to do it instantly! The magic of being someone other than Mommy. :) She was, and still is, super pumped! Sydney has made the biggest jump, in that she is full of courage and wants so badly to pass that swim test. She is swimming under water so well and with a little more practice, she will probably pass the test too! It's all so much fun to watch. Being in the pool is, and always has been, one of my very fave things. I love watching the girls learn to swim! Getting a nice little tan isn't a bad perk either. ;)

My sweet little mermaids... :)
