This afternoon we took the girls to the Y to swim. Steve and Delaney were in the deep end, and she was determined to learn how to dive. Steve gave her some demonstrations and pointers, and before we knew it she was diving like a pro! Unbelievable. It's amazing how well she and Ella swim, considering they have never taken a single swimming lesson.
As for me, I took lots of swimming lessons at Cross Lake while i was growing up. The one thing I never quite learned to do (fear factor!) was to dive. I did do it in order to pass my Junior Lifesaving class. But I haven't made a dive since then, which is at least 45 years! Safe to say, my diving days are done!
