Swimming was a success!

So yesterday my daughter went on her field trip to the aquatic center.  If you recall in an earlier post, I was quite nervous about letting her go as she really can’t swim but thinks she can.  The only way I would let her go was by going in myself to supervise.  I must say I was highly impressed with her teacher.

When I got to the aquatic center and spoke to her about Kara’s dilemma, she was extremely understanding and explained to me exactly where Kara would go swimming.  She would not go in the “Olympic sized” pool, but would go into a smaller one at the end of the building.  She then walked me and Kara over to the “little” pool and showed us how deep and safe it was.  Kara got in and had a blast.  The water level was just up to her chest area and her swimming in that deep of water was just fine with me.  Kara couldn’t have cared less if she went in to the big pool or not and was quite content to swim where we told her too.

So all my fears were put to rest and Kara had a wonderful time.  So it was a great day for the both of us.  And I have to give a lot of the credit for this wonderful day to her wonderful teacher.
