its over

We finished our first ever swimming lessons.

Caitlin did make progress:

• She no longer death grips her teacher while swimming
• she will swim on her back without getting scared
• she will put her mouth in the water
• she will go all the way under with the teacher only- never by herself
• she doesn't cry when jumping off the diving board (well actually being dropped off the board)
• she will get in the hot tub and not just sit on the steps
• she just seems more comfortable with the water in general

That being said, she still has far to go to even graduate out of her current class but I'm glad that she liked it and had fun.

We will resume lessons in the summer or fall.

Since this post is about Caitlin, lets finish with a glimpse of how good she is getting at writing her name. Which is a good thing because it is misspelled by others more than spelled correctly.
