What a gorgeous day for swimming! Our whole family decided to take a break from everything and head to the pool for our first afternoon of swimming since the kids and I attempted it in early April. Karianna found out that she is tall enough to stand in the shallow end of the pool! Yahoo! That means she feels much more comfortable swimming without floaties. She was starting to get the hang of it last summer, but was still very unsure of being in the water unsupported. It was great to see how confident she was today, bopping around on her own and using her height to support herself independently. Granted she still needs to be monitored very closely should she stray past the 40 inch mark, but I think this will be a great step for her swimming skills. Yahoo again!
