Charlie Rings the Bell!

Today, Charlie fulfilled a dream of hers—she got to ring the bell at her swim school.

For quite some time Charlotte has seen her big sister Samantha earn numerous medals and ribbons upon passing the final skills of various swim classes at Love to Swim. Shortly after starting a preschool-level 2 swim class this summer, Charlie excitedly asked on numerous occasions, "When do I get to ring the bell?"—unaware that she had to pass eight skills before she could partake in such an honor. Well, last Wednesday (October 13) Charlie completed the final two skills of her class, and Mommy was informed that Charlie could ring the bell after today's class. Charlie was thrilled when she received her medal, which read "Winner" on one side and "#1" on the other. And she was also excited to see that her new curriculum wristband, which the coaches use to mark off completed skills, is a bright pink.
