Swimming lessons-round 2!
Parker went under water! This a huge deal for her, we have really been making a big deal out of it. We tried swimming lessons last month, she did okay but was terrified of getting her face/head wet. This week she seems more comfortable in the water and is doing some things on her own like jumping off the diving board into a coach's arms, as opposed to being lowered by another coach, where she never gets her head wet. Last night, she jumped, went under for a few seconds and came up, then she used the dumbbell to swim over to the later unassisted by a coach. The best part? She wanted to do it again! Way to go Parker Liz!

I have read both of your post but didn't have time to comment, so here I am.
Great job on the swim lessons. Madeline was exactly the same way last year and then she took swim lessons in Feb 2008 and was scared to death to do anything then. She would just start crying if they even asked her to under water or put her face in. All of a sudden this June she is jumping in, head fully wet and going under. Go figure.
Tell her from us she is doing a great job.
Have a great weekend.
