Like a Seal in the Water

Sofie is a little awkward on land. While playing, she frequently drills herself in the face with her toys. When she rolls over she gets stuck, like a turtle on her back. She punches and scratches herself regularly as she tries to gain control of her limbs. She runs into walls, chairs, and tables with her walker. But just like a seal, Sofie's awkwardness on land is compensated by her sleekness in the water.





Sofie's greatest pool trick so far this summer is her monkey hold on the side of the pool.







And as we all expected, Sofie floats!!!









She is off to the races.


Drunk off chlorine water.

Looks like she is a natural. It would be nice to be in that warm weather. We are still stuck in spring, or winter at times. Hope all is going well and good luck with the internship.
