Swimming lessons - Kaitlin

This year Kaitlin was very excited for swimming lessons. She's been swimming with friends who can swim good so I think she was ready to learn more too. She is very comfortable in the water and loves that she is strong enough to go in the deep end now without a noodle or flutter board. Her hardest thing for her has been to change her kick. She has been kicking with her knees and she needs to kick from her hip. She got lots of practice these past two weeks. She did many laps of the pool everyday and was always eager to do whatever MJ asked. She passed level 4 and is now ready for level 5!! This week she got to go to East Side Park (a water park) and I knew she would have fun knowing she can swim. It's so wonderful to see her exceling at something she loves!
