Salamander

Annika finished her week of swimming lessons today, and even though she didn't pass her level ("salamander"), she really amazed me at how well she did. There were only 2 things that she "missed" on her report card - front to back roll-over and back to front roll-over. And more importantly, she had a lot of fun (which wasn't happening when she took swimming in spring). I think she really liked her teacher a lot. Despite being initially disappointed that she got the "boy teacher", she seemed to really like how fun and silly he was. She actually asked me today if I thought he would be teaching salamander again! :) Since she had so much fun and did so well, I actually registered her for another week of swimming lessons in August. Gotta strike while the iron is hot, right?
