Jessica is our latest little fishy - she passed the swim test tonight by swimming a full lap by herself! 25 yards at age 4! She gets a wristband that means she can go on the slides and in any of the pools by herself! (don't worry, I'll still keep a close eye on her)
She was so cute, she has been planning on passing this test all summer long. First she decided to take the test on her birthday, but then she got the idea to do it sooner, at age 4. She practiced in the pool in Mackinaw City last weekend, and declared herself ready to pass the test. And she was right!
She swims best with her face in the water, and kicking her feet furiously. She doggy-paddles when she needs to breathe. It isn't pretty, but she can do it!
