My Little Fishy

This speedy little girl just swam her last swim meet of the summer and she was awesome.
Last night, Phoebe was chosen to swim in both the freestyle and medley relays in the city-wide rely meet. Her freestyle and backstroke relays had previously taken first place, so we had high hopes for this meet. Her first event was the freestyle relay and she was swimming third. Her teammates started off in high gear and had a big lead when it was Phoebe's turn. And she held the lead. They came in first by a big margin. Yay, Phoebe!!
Next, she was starting off the medley relay with the backstroke and wouldn't you know it, she hit the wall first! It all came down to their last swimmer who just lost the lead by a fraction of a second. They got second place...not too shabby. Again, YAY Phoebe!!
I love watching this sweet girl succeed.
