Little Mermaid


Well, at least that is what I hope Gi becomes, a little mermaid. Munchkin just completed her first week of aquatic survival lessons with a certified ISR instructor. I must say there is a real science to this program. With the exception of the first day, Gi has screamed like a banshee during her daily ten minute lessons. Nevertheless, she is a willing participant and is making good progress. Munch has already learned breath control and can swim with head in water a very short distance to reach the hand bar or the seahorse toy placed on the pool steps in front of her. One week down, perhaps three to five more weeks to go. Sorry no pictures at this time as I am usually very busy poolside cheering Gi on as she performs her tasks with the instructor who by the way has been wonderful with Gi so far...very patient, cheerful, persistent and even toned.

You go Gi you little mermaid... start swimming like a fish... it is fun... I had to take my niece to her swimming lessons one day but got annoyed at the teacher pushing her to do something she didn't want to do and she was screaming like a Banshee... that ticked me off... suffice to say she swims like a fish now... take care...

Pretty impressive! To scream like a banshee and learn important skills at the same time!
