Swimming Lessons edited

So I have to admit when the girls got in the pool today I was very nervous. The mother in me just wanted to jump in and be right there with them. For a while they were standing on a little platform in the 3-4ft deep water and I was sure that they were going to fall off and start drowning. They didn't. How can the teacher keep track of all the kids, someone will fall off. They didn't.
I had to keep reassuring myself that everything would be ok. They are trained lifeguards and can teach little kids to swim.
I had to laugh during lessons. The teacher was taking the kids one by one of the steps into the water and having them put their arms out and their body straight and flying through the water. She said to Dacia "do you want to be Superman"? Dacia said "no, Supergirl".
