More Lessons from the Swim Whisperer

Ms. Carol is our "swim whisperer." She is beyond amazing at teaching children to swim. The girls loved her last summer, so it was a no-brainer that we would take swim lessons with her again. Luckily, we were able to get a spot in April--before the busy summer season begins and before our summer vacation.
Because we knew Sutton would have a hard time staying out of the pool, we decided to enroll him, too, and it was the right decision. Here, he's showing off his "beeeg muscles!"
Sutton LOVED Ms. Carol, and I think the feeling was mutual. He's a little fish and took her direction really well. The only "skill" he has trouble with is keeping his bottom on the side of the pool. He cannot sit still!

Ella is also a fish, and Ms. Carol was impressed with her abilities. She even asked if we'd been swimming all year because the girls had retained so much from last summer. We hadn't been swimming since last year--further affirmation of Ms. Carol's teaching skills.
Grace is a great swimmer--a full-fledged swimmer. She's beautiful to watch, and Ms. Carol has high hopes for her. She loves the water!
Until next summer...
