I gave birth to a fish!

We spent the day at my grandparents today, actually we have spent the last few days there and probably the next few since we are leaving the great state of NY on Friday. ((sigh)) I am ready to head home but not ready to leave. Ok back to my topic. My grandparents opened the pool late this year and we have been out swimming any chance we can before we head home. (wow! Sorry about the depression, yikes!) Like I said we were swimming the other day and my youngest niece was in the pool with out floaties. We were all in there just in case, but she was "swimming" and so excited about it. It got me thinking that Kaitlyn is such a good "swimmer" with her floaties that I should let her try it without anything keeping her above water. (well she can touch but still) Flash forward to today, we all got in the pool and I say,"Hey Kaitee, want to take these off (arm floaters)?" She couldn't wait!! We tore those suckers off and she was off like lightening!! OMFishy! She was swimming across the pool and I mean S W I M M I N G not "swimming". She was doing the head under mostly, kicking her way across the pool but she was swimming!!! I was so happy for her!! We stayed out in the pool for about 3 hours!! Not lying here people, I was 33 when I got in but looked 93 when I got out!! LOL She just kept telling me that she could almost touch her head on the bottom and that now she could dive for the rings. I didn't know I was holding her back folks!! I was afraid, I don't want anything bad to happen to her EVER!! I know now though that I WAS the bad for her by hold her back. By the end of the 3 hours she showed me how to do a front roll UNDER water and a back roll!! Good Gravy this girl was on fire! I have a video of it but it doesn't seem to want to load. I will post it later.
