Today was Chloe's last swim meet for this season. We have been so pleased with the Carmichael Beavers--Chloe has loved her coaches and she has learned to swim!! Before the season, she couldn't swim at all, and now she can swim a full lap by herself! She still lacks a lot of confidence, stopping frequently on the lane lines for a break during freestyle, and wanting a coach in the water helping her with backstroke. Andrew and I decided to bribe her for this meet if she could swim a full lap by herself without stopping--a treat from the snack bar for freestyle and a new dress for backstroke. The stakes were higher for backstroke, because, until today, she has never swam further than the first set of flags without a coach helping her. Well, Andrew and I found out today that Chloe just needed the right motivation--she swam the two laps all by herself without stopping!!! We are so proud of her!!
Love her diving form!
Ready to pencil jump into the water for backstroke
Ready to go!
