Swimmer!

Emmett is taking swimming lessons again, and today he actually swam! After jumping off the diving board, he came to the surface, got a breath, put his face in the water and swam a few strokes, took another breath, and repeated that until he was back to the step in the corner. The teacher was right near him the whole time, but she didn't touch him.

After class I congratulated Emmett on swimming without help and he told me that the teacher helped a little. I asked him if she touched him and he said, "No, she just was nearby telling me what to do." Like reminding him to breathe. Still, I'm thrilled with how far he's come in such a short time.
