Conrad, Day 3: This guy is seriously a miracle worker (and Matt deserves all the credit for insisting she do these lessons). Today she turned a corner. After lots of tears and fears in the hour leading up to the lesson—and lots of talking about positive attitude and trying to have fun swimming—she rallied and didn’t shed a tear. She swam like a champ (in this video she’s diving for Ariel the mermaid on the bottom of the pool) and started to develop a humorous rapport with Conrad. In the midst of the lesson she announced “I LOVE this class,” and then afterward she said, “Swimming is TOO fun.”
