It's interesting to watch your children grow and mature. Though it doesn't always happen as you'd expect. For example, Allison is the oldest and "should" learn to do things before the other kids right?
Wrong!
In fact it took two or three summers just to get Allison comfortable with the water at the lake. Now she loves to swim and can even put her head under the water. But Rachel decided to go from zero to sixty in less than a month. This past week she learned to get in the water, and stand up on her own. Yesterday, she got tired of asking Tammy to put her in the water, so she just decided she would jump off the pier herself!
Allison still hasn't done it.
So there you have it. No two kids are alike. So don't expect it...
