Deep Blue

So, before you judge, let me just say that maintaining a normal facial expression under water is harder than it seems. Ok, now go ahead and judge.

These were taken at Inara's swim lessons. We've been doing it since she was four months and for a while she wasn't a huge fan and would sometimes cry, especially when having to go under water. But, for the last couple of months she's been doing great. It's a joy to see how she actually enjoys swimming (very short distances) under water and splashing around. She even voluntarily dives in from sitting on the edge, screwing her eyes shut tight and holding her breath first. She also loves cruising around the pool with those inflatable rings on her arms. Next class she'll get to use flippers, so keep your eyes peeled for updates on that!
