Having grown up by the ocean, my husband can swim like a fish.  I, on the other hand, cannot really swim at all.  My parents cannot swim, so they were not able to teach me.  They did send me to 3 or 4 lessons when I was about 11 years old, but those did not get me too far.  Now that I am the parent, I feel like it would be irresponsible for my husband and I not to be sure our children can swim.  I'll never know when they may be put in a situation where they have no choice but to tread water and stay afloat.

That is why I am so happy to be part of the Swim Steps Swim Team Ambassador Program sponsored by SwimWays, a leading brand of swim training products, as well as pool toys and accessories.  Yesterday, I received a box of SwimWays swim training products plus some fun pool toys to help my 3 children (ages 4, 4, and 7) to learn to swim this summer.  The twins have not experienced the pool in our townhouse community yet because they needed to be completely potty trained first (which they now are) and our 7 year old son, who did not seem to like the water the few times we had brought him to the pool, recently discovered that he actually loves it after attending a birthday pool party for one of his friends from school.

The swimming pool in our townhouse community does not officially open until the first day of summer, but we do have other options in our town.  I look forward to keeping you updated on all 3 children's progress in learning to swim.  Hopefully, they all will be swimming like fishes by the end of the summer.
