Today you finished Nitro 1! I am so proud of you!
You went from being scared to put your face in the water to swimming the length of the pool (length wise), on your back or switching from your back to your front!

You were pretty disappointed when you got a shirt. You were expecting a trophy. Hopefully Mamae made it better by giving you a medal when you got home.

You also asked for the paper that the staff gave me to give to the front desk to show that you finished/graduated Nitro 1. It was laminated so it wasn’t for you to keep. We’re working on a certificate.

Unbelievable! You’re at station 10 in Nitro 1!

Last week, you sleep thru the days you had swim class.
This week you slept thru Tuesday night (after swim class) and then Wednesday night, but not Thursday night (after swim class). Why?

We’re pretty surprised you at station 9!
Mamae and I looked at each other wondering if you’re telling us you’re at station 9 just to get our praise…Guess we should stop working so hard and go to your swimming class.

You got home from swimming today and proudly told us you moved up to station 8! You swam the entire length of the pool on your back by yourself.

We’re so proud of you.

You swore up and down that | was a cross. When I tried to correct you, you ran away and pouted.

When I tried to explain you needed 3 in a straight line to win tic tac toe, you ran away and pouted.

Seems you’re learning to play tic tac toe.

You don’t quite get the idea of 3 in a row and they have to be in a straight line.

That nasty cough is back. Time to bust out the nebulizer.

Why is it that we end up taking that with us on trips? Took it to Punta Cana, now we’ll be taking it to Playa Del Carmen.

Mamae bought you some new skirts and you LOVE them.

She also bought some shorts and you refuse to try them on. Why the shorts hatin’?

“Maya, Maya. Maya in the middle, let me see you jump, let me see you wiggle. Turn around and sit back down.”
