This Girl...

Has gone from being unwilling to put her face in the water to a halfway decent swimmer in a remarkably short amount of time.  Something just clicked in her brain and she is powering through her swim lessons.  She is in the pre-school beginners class right now and after today is getting moved to a more intermediate class.  She will only put her face in the water if she has goggles on, but even without going under she can tread water like a boss.  We threw her in the deep end of our pool yesterday and she got herself to the side and out safely in a manner of seconds.  

The next hurdle is to get her to jump in or go down the slide without someone having to catch her.  We'll see.
