Torture...

... is watching your sisters have a ball at their swimming lessons and having to sit on the side.

Her persistence I have spoken about came out in the minutes before I took this photo. I placed her on the ground holding her hand as she does not sit by herself yet. So I thought. She twice pulled away from my hand so she could sit up herself. I think I was told in no uncertain terms there.

Sisters were both awesome at their lesson progressing very well under the guidance of a swim teacher who has been around the block many times now. She knows exactly how to get them to try new things with confidence and complete trust.
