As if starting soccer isn't enough, we also dove into swimming lessons for the first time. On the way to her first lesson Anneliese said, "Mommy, I'm just so nervous. What if my swim teacher talks to me?!" I'm not kidding. This kid is hysterical. God forbid someone talk to her!

| Happy smiles as she sits next to me waiting for her lesson to start. We're the only family IN AMERICA that has to bring their 4-year-old to the pool a 1/2 hr early so she can watch the kids before her and muster up her courage :) |

| I'm laughing very hard during this picture. She was originally sitting on the other side of the stairs, but when it was her turn and the teacher reached out to encourage her to come foward, Leesy panicked and pushed kids in front of her as she scooched to the other side. |
I am happy to report that with 8 sessions under our belt and only 2 more left, Anneliese can now float on her back and front by herself and jump in and swim under water unassisted to the wall. She actually loves her teacher now. We'll likely take a break from swimming until soccer is over....this mama is tired of caravaning already! Only 14 more years to go!
