My Little Fish

I decided to enroll Rachel in some private swim lessons at the Y this summer. We took several of the group lesson series last year and we didn't make much progress. Rachel's favorite lifeguard/instructor, Beth, was back this summer and in 3 lessons Rachel was swimming underwater and could swim doggie paddle the 25-yard length of the pool. I was so impressed and actually surprised when she passed the Y's swim test to use the large water slides in the outdoor pool and earned the much-coveted green wristband. You go, girl!
