Swimming Lessons

This month Emmeline started her first swimming lessons. There are three other kids in her class, a little girl named Patricia, a little boy named Sam, and her best friend Juliana. As long as Juliana and Emmeline don't sit together, they do pretty good in class. (They have a tendency to get talking and playing around if they are sitting next to each other :) ) Emmeline's teacher is Miss Katie. Emmeline really enjoys her swimming lessons. Some of her favorite "games" are: throwing the toy fish and having to swim and get it, and pushing the ball into the hoolahoop. I thought that I would use the time of her swimming lessons to read but no--the lessons are too much fun to watch. Also, Mabel decided that if she can't actually go to the swimming lessons, she wants to at least watch them herself. She is so funny. She wants to join Em's swim class so badly. She likes to take a towel up to the observation deck and when the lessons are over she runs to the door to greet the swimmers. In a couple of years little Mabel--then it will be your turn!!
