Swimming Lessons

For me I mean (not baby)! That's right your Mommy's learning how to swim. So when an opportunity to swim with dolphins comes up, I'm there; if we visit a cenote in the Yucatan, I'm swimming; if we go snorkeling in Hawaii, I'm floating on my stomach! You know, having a baby gave me this new found courage to learn to swim. And with Garvey Pool across the street there really is no excuse. So far I've learned to breathe under the water, put my face in, flutter kick, float on stomach and back, frog kick, and swimming on one side - wow! I still get freaked out though and I don't like opening my eyes under water. But, with lots of practice I'll get good enough to help Maddie learn when she's old enough.
