Swimming!

My friend Janelle is in Canada (she's a very smart person to avoid the Houston heat!) right now but gave us keys so we could swim while she's gone. Today we finally had that opportunity and it was great! Hannah decided she wanted to swim and wanted to do it on her own and by the end of the hour and a half we were there she was swimming half way across the pool! It started with pushing off the step to me, she did that numerous times, then she started putting her hands out in front and kicking to me, by the end she got to the point where she could lift her head up and take a breath, at least kind of, but she got water in her nose the last time she tried that and was very upset with the pool, it was amusing :-) But I am very proud of all the effort she put in today and am hoping to go to the pool several more times before Janelle gets back and we start lessons again so Hannah can keep practicing.
