The Mermaid Swims!!!!!







The Mermaid has not taken well to the pool..which is disappointing since we spend a lot of time in it. So, we have made an effort this week to get in it each day and work with her. She wears her swim vest and has spent a lot of time on the side with her feet in the pool kicking, she then warmed up to the sunshelf and would sit in the pool, she eventually let me or her Ba Ba hold her in the pool. No geting her face wet or splashing. She learned how to cruise around the pool holding onto the side. Things started looking up. Well, today...she let go! I showed her how to kick and Ba Ba showed her how to scoop the ice cream. She was all smiles today! I even caught her putting her face in the water blowing bubbles like The Pirate.
