Swim Lessons!

Last week McKenna had her swim lessons!! This is the first summer that I have not been in the pool with her. I was a little worried at first on how she would do but she did great!! The first day I wasn't so sure especially when the teacher told McKenna to put her face in the water she said "No I won't do that." The teacher was great though. She was firm but loving and said yes McKenna we will try it. She did it and did great! The following day she was a face in the water pro! The only thing that she had a hard time with and didn't like was floating on her back but everything else she did great at and loved!! At the end of the lessons the teacher gave them a little trophy and certificate. On the back she wrote everything that they were able to do and she read those when she gave the awards. McKenna has been wanting us to read her accomplishments to her all of the time. She is so proud of how good she did at her lessons and we are proud of her too. She is a little fish!! Here are some pictures of her fun lessons!!

McKenna's Last Day of School

May 28th was McKennas last day of school. She had a great year!!! She loved school and she will miss it this summer. She doesn't quite understand summer break yet though. She asked me today "mom, is church out for summer too or can we still go there?" She was happy when I told her that we still got to go to church during the summer! Starting out McKenna wasn't too sure about school. She would get a little upset when I dropped her off, but she came a long way. By the end of the year she would go in very excited and ready to start the day. Thankfully though she was always still excited to see me when I picked her up!!! Here is a little look down memory lane!
