So, the other day one of my 3-year-old students asked me if I was a grandmother. π
I know that there are plenty of 54-year-old grandparents in the world, so itβs not entirely unrealistic, but Iβm just sayinβ, I didnβt need to hear that. I was having a great day, then Autumn comes along andβ¦ well you know the rest.
Anyway, enough about me.

Student Spotlight
Meet Brogan. When Brogan first started taking swimming lessons with me, he was certainly not without fear, clinging to his mom like a sock to a sweater fresh out of the dryer.
Broganβs Ultimate Self-Rescue Challenge
3-year-old Brogan crushes the ultimate self-rescue challenge, which means that he can now self-rescue if he were to fall into a swimming pool fully clothed.
His progress took place over a three-day span. From being a little tentative and not entirely confident to then being able to pull it off without a hitch.
