A summer full of swimming!








Lorelei loves swimming! She is our little fish! She would of course call herself a "Mermaid." She loves the water and wants to spend all day in the pool. She has really excelled this year in swimming. It is amazing how fast they learn. She loves to swim underwater and dive for rings and treasure. Her favorite part about swim lessons, was diving for the treasure and jumping off the diving board. They learned to float on their backs, freestyle, butterfly, breast stroke and diving. Although Lorelei learned these strokes at swimming lessons, she continues to use her favorite stroke the "doggy paddle." Hopefully next year she will want to use the other strokes too. We love living in Arizona, just for the reason of being able to swim almost all year round.
