Shampoo Shelly

This week was my last swim lesson with "Shampoo" Shelly. Daddy gave her that nickname because all we've ever seen of her is head and shoulders. Now I have Jean as my instructor although I'm not sure what her nickname should be. We're working on it.



Also, I had a scary moment in the pool last week. I always play around by the shallow end steps before my lesson. But I got into the deep end by mistake. I frantically kicked and paddled back to the steps until I could touch again. Momma nearly had to jump into the pool wearing her work clothes before I finally raised my head out of the water and gasped a huge breath. We both then gasped a huge sigh of relief before I explained to her, "I can't breathe under water!"
