Weekly Blessing - Week 22



SWIMMING GRADUATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This week Morgan graduated from a Polar I to a Polar II which means she: 


Did her back float independently for more than 10 seconds 


Could find her way to the wall and climb out of the pool


Swam with a perfect "arrow" 


Used her "big arms" independent of the barbell 


Swam at least 25 feet on her own 


AND.... took her "big breaths" while swimming!  


That last one is the big one, that last one is what sent us back 3 months after she choked on water trying to do it the first couple of times. But she did it, she worked through it and now she graduated.  


They make a big deal when kids move up, they ring a big cow bell and everyone claps for them, they get a ribbon, etc.. and in Morgan's case your teacher spins around and gets REALLY excited that you did it. 


She was so proud, I was so proud... Congrats my Polar II!!!!
