Swim Season

First swim team season in the books for Grant, on varsity as a freshman. He did really well! He’s been swimming since he was tiny and diving since he was 4 years old but hadn’t had any experience with the specific strokes since swim lessons when he was little. He swam the 100 butterfly, the 500, and the 200 relay at districts and got to experience the state meet as an alternate. He's a good swimmer, and it was a lot of fun watching him. I learned that swim meets go much quicker and are more exciting if you time for them. It's a bonus that you get to be over with the swimmers and don't have to sit on those un-comfy bleachers. 

Grant was very sick, fever and all, the week before districts and missed three days of school. We were afraid he wasn't going to be well enough to swim, but he rallied. He wasn't 100%, but he made it through!
