well, almost anyway. today the girl tested out of parent/tot and will officially be in the next level of swim lessons when the new session starts in two weeks. very cool, but a bit bittersweet as well as i think we all look forward to swim lessons as they are now. the good part? me not donning a swimsuit each week.
i know she'll do great. she loves the water and we also are lucky enough to have the same teacher for the next session who the girl adores. the teacher even signs with her. love that she enjoys this so much and is learning a life skill at the same time. a definite win/win.
I assume the next step is flip-turns and backstrokes and sets of laps at 4:00 a.m.?

Hey Mel,
Micah has that same swimsuit from GAP...love it!!
I just finished looking at all the proofs Melissa has up on her site...they are amazing!!! I don't know how you are going to decide which ones to buy :) Hope you are having a good week.
