Last Saturday Ella participated in her first swimmeet! She's in the beginner class of our parent-run swim program. Despite the bad weather, everyone did really well.
Ella was a little nervous since she's never been in a race before. She did two races: 20 yard kickboard, and 20 yard doggy paddle with a noodle. Her first race didn't go so great because she inhaled some water, started crying, and needed help to finish. Her later comment was, "I forgot something with the kickboard: kicking!" She pulled herself along the rope to the end. It was very cute. But she didn't give up! And she finished 2nd.
Her second race was great! She doggy paddled like a pro and got a blue ribbon.
Yay swimmers!!
