Our Little Fish

Madelyn has been taking swim lessons since May 2010. She would go to a small class (4 kids or less) once a week. We were so amazed to watch her grow over the course of a year.

This summer, we decided to enroll her in the city's Parks & Rec program figuring it would be a great way to get her out of the house, while at the same time improving her skills. What a great decision! The Parks & Rec program was fantastic! The classes were still small (no more than 6 in a class, although there were typically only 2-4). She swam four days a week, Monday - Thursday for 30 minutes each day. We owe Rachel, her summer babysitter, a huge thank you for getting her there every day, even on days when Madelyn was less than cooperative. ;) THANK YOU, Rachel!

Today we spent the morning swimming in our pool, and I decided to take some footage of our little fish. She has come a long way with her swimming skills, and we are very proud of her!
