I think some of it had to do with my mom swimming the DAY she went into labor with me.<BR/><BR/>When I first started swim team, I used be able to itch my arms and legs in the cold water and literally give myself hives in order to get out of early summer practices. It took until about 11 that I began to actaully enjoy it...but years later I am SO grateful to have started so young.LoveOfShoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13657349431464642197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21601772.post-12896033149482562942008-05-21T09:09:00.000-04:002008-05-21T09:09:00.000-04:00Lala is a very proud too!

I didn't quit either (even though I thought I would have a heat stroke at any second) if my 7 yr old granddaughter could stick it out in the water, I could stick it out in the yoga studio with the atmospheric conditions of hell.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21601772.post-42465286307471223462008-05-21T08:40:00.000-04:002008-05-21T08:40:00.000-04:00I am v. impressed.

As you mentioned, ours aren't old enough yet, but wowee, go Carmella!! <BR/><BR/>And you know, you have to remind yourself how far that is for a little one, and also? That cold morning water? I didn't like that even when I was a much bigger, more experienced swimmer. Hell, I still don't like it. <BR/><BR/>yay!Dogwood Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07501697477604631512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21601772.post-31848770962668582002008-05-21T07:52:00.000-04:002008-05-21T07:52:00.000-04:00No comment.
