Samantha has been taking swim lessons on and off for a couple years now. We've never been consistent with lessons nor do we have daily access to a swimming pool thus Samantha is still not swimming.
We had a breakthrough recently during our latest run of lessons with Lydia at Cathedral Oaks Athletic Club which happened at just the right time since we were leaving on vacation where we would be spending most of our time at the pool. I think it also helped that I pulled Lydia aside and said she needed to be a little more aggressive with Samantha and move past the bunny hops and blowing bubbles.
While I feel like we are so SO close to having a swimmer, I've got to do my part and get the lessons going again so that we don't lose the progress we made. If only there were more time in the day to add one more activity to our already busy schedule which has gotten even busier since school started. I'll figure it all out and get you more confident in the water soon Sammie Girl!
