McCanless has been taking swimming lessons at the YMCA for a couple of weeks. She was swimming on her own last summer, but looked more like a “drowing drunk” (as Mel would say) with flailing arms and legs. More like power dog paddling, I guess. This year, her strokes seem more defined, and almost on purpose! She is doing so well and announced on Monday that she, “sunk under deep in the deep water.” I’m guessing she held her breath and went under water in the deep end. She loves her class and looks forward to it twice a week.
\nI can’t wait to begin to taking her to Prestwood Pool so she can show off her new swimming skills! I’m so proud of her!<\/p>\n

This is Jacob, one of her instructors and a great swimmer!
\nMommy taught Jacob in 6th, 7th and 8th grade. He is now a senior at Mayo High School.<\/p>\n
