Emmet's First Swim Meet

I put Emmet into swim team this year!! It's been so great for him. I have been nervous about it because if your child can't swim the 25 meters unassisted in 75 seconds they get cut. Well, Emmet was able to do it and in much less time--yeah!! He practices every morning from 8:40 to 9:10. The public pool is just down the street. I know Emmet loves it because he doesn't complain. That's how I know he likes things!! Today was his first meet. I truly don't care if he races, I just love the practices. He raced against other 5-6 year old boys. He took fifth and was so proud of himself. I am relieved it was a good experience. We were only there from 7:45 to 8:45 and Emery and I were sweating to death. I was really proud of him!!
