As many of you recall, we had the triplets go through a swimming course called ISR (infant swimming resource) when they were 3 1/2. This is a course that teaches children self preservation - essentially, how to float if you were to fall into a pool.
Abby is pictured in her winter coat here because part of the "graduation" process is to simulate what it would be like for a child to fall into the water fully clothed. Not only is it heavy, but also confining... and she handled it like a champ!
At 2 1/2, we felt that Abby was ready for the course. The website is being funny about which videos they will let me upload... but you get the idea! Go Abby!
