Gloria started out a little timid and had both her teachers holding her in the water thinking she couldn't swim by herself. We talked to her and pepped her up, so on Thursday she told them to let her try by herself. It was great! One teacher even exclaimed after class, "That little girl can swim by herself!" I was so proud of her for being brave enough to decline help. She actually was a little scared because they swim in the 4' where she cannot touch. Today she must have said "I can do it by myself" about 20 times! But she really did...even some of the back strokes which are the hardest at her age since they tend to sink. Yay Gloria!!!

Allia doing the crawl all the way across the deep end. I am not sure exactly how far it is, but it was a looong way! |

Mariana has so much fun but often talks so much to her little friend in the class that she doesn't hear the teacher! |

Mariana is doing great developing her strokes a little more, and of course she loves jumping in! |
