This summer I put Katelyn in swimming lessons again, in hopes that she would be swimming by the end of the summer. We started back at square one and she was terrified to try and swim across the water. She wouldn't leave the edge. Then, one day it happened...it's like it just clicked. She let go and swam! Her teacher couldn't believe it and kept asking me if I had her taking lessons somewhere else. I said, "No, that's just how Katelyn works." It might take a little longer for her to have the confidence to do things on her own, but when she does she's great! She was learning everything and taking it all in, but she was just too scared to try it. Now she is a great swimmer and it getting all of the strokes down! Wahoo! All of the tears, lessons and me not letting her quit paid off!
