Sweetman Swimmers Graduation

I vividly remember pushing baby Charley in the swings at our neighborhood playground in the spring of 2012, when I overheard two other moms talking about "the very best swim program in town!"  For some reason I didn't have my phone with me, so I quickly put Charley in the stroller and repeated "Sweetman Swimmers" over and over until I got home to my computer.  It seemed a little odd to sign my baby up for swimming lessons, but it's one of the best decisions Craig and I have ever made for the girls.

When Charley was 2.5 years old, we were on a family vacation at the beach and as I put my stuff down on the lounge chair, I realized I didn't see her little feet behind me.  I quickly looked up and found her floating in the pool...just like she was taught at Sweetman Swimmers.

I always knew the lessons were good for her, but that incident made me a believer and huge advocate of their program.  Each summer we've set aside time and money for the girls to attend 1-2 weeks of classes, and this summer, Charley graduated from the program.  She not only knows how to do different strokes, but most importantly, I'm confident she can save her life!
