Small Miracle

Today was the last day of swimming lessons.

Avalee passed and is on her way to swimming. This is a first because she has always been scared to death of the water and has been in the same class for four years.

Lincoln did not pass BUT he will put his nose and his mouth under the water AND he earned a yellow ribbon. This means he can float on his back by himself and stand up when he is done. With a yellow ribbon, he can go down the slide by himself. He went down the slide seven times before I forced him out of the pool.

It is a happy day because I don't have to go down the slide anymore, too many times makes me dizzy, and the kids can be in the water by themselves.
