My sweet baby

My baby LOVES to swim. She would be in the pool all the time if we let her. The first thing she asks in the morning is if we get to swim and if she can get in her swimming suit. This year she learned to swim without her life jacket. She learned to swim under water, come up for air and go back under to swim the rest of the way. She can tread water pretty well for a 3 year old and she also learned to jump off the diving board and swim to the side. This means that next year all of my kids will be better swimmers than I am. I am so proud of her!

I love the pic! I am also very happy that she learned to swim after the story you told me the other day! She is probably a better swimmer than my older girls! I need to get on the ball!
