“C” is for Celebrating ....


It seems like a long time since the days when Ashlynn couldnt swim or ride a bike, and we had to walk 25 minutes to the pool for her lessons in the shallow pool. Its been very exciting to watch her progress in a fairly short time from only being able to dog paddle to being able to complete her C”diploma which included 4 laps dressed in trousers, long-sleeved top and windbreaker, diving, a 27-foot underwater swim through a hoop plus 10+ laps of mixed strokes along with an occasional somersault or obstacle, as shown above. Shes now in the highest group at swimming lessons during PE at school and is the first in her class to earn all of the beginner diplomas. Next up, shell join Veronicas snorkel classes--yeah, theyll finally have lessons at the same time!
