The girls moved to the next class. They are now swimming in the deep end. Maggie is able to swim the crawl stroke the length of the pool without a flotation belt! Mena is getting closer.
We went to the city pool and the girls wanted to jump off the diving board. The head life guard needed to see them swim the crawl stroke the width of the pool without assistance. I did the side stroke beside them to cheer them each on. Maggie did the crawl stroke so fast that I had to pick up the pace!! Mena couldn't make it the full width. Maggie can jump in at any time that we're at the pool. Mena can jump in during breaks when a life guard is in the water to help, if she needs it. She never needed help and the girls jumped over and over!
