We always tell the kids that Swim is mandatory and dive is optional;however, this summer I told Shelby she had to dive, as it would be her third year diving 8 and under. This I told her, might, put her at an advantage. She reluctantly agreed. Well, now we are at the end of the season and she placed 2nd place in 4 out of 5 meets, got the high point trophy for 8 and under girls, made divisionals and placed yesterday 3rd at divisionals and will now go to All-Stars on Wednesday. Who would of thought!!! She has even told me recently that she would like to dive next year and that she has been having dreams about diving. She's come a long way this summer..from just knowing a front and back dive and front and back jumps to learning a front flip, a back flip, a front dive tuck and she wants to learn a front dive pike. We are incredibly proud of her accomplishments this summer and look forward to what she might do next summer!!! GO SHELBY!
