Her swim coach, Annie, was a high school swimmer. She was teaching lessons while attending college. We really, really were lucky that Annie became the blond twin's coach.
It didn't take long for the blond twin to learn the basics. Turned out that the blond twin was a pretty natural swimmer. She easily picked up all the tips and tricks Annie shared.
She was able to show her newfound skills at the high school swim practices almost immediately. She really liked the team. New girls had a big sister to help them navigate the process. The coaches seemed genuinely happy to have her join.
It was such a contrast to her cheer experience. She loved being in the water from her first lesson. It was good for her body and her soul. We were so happy that she found her sport and her team.
