First Swimming Experience

Sydney had her first experience swimming since her amputation. She did great! She tried both prosthetic-on and prosthetic-off swimming. When she was just swimming around she liked not having her leg on, but when she wanted to do the little playgound, she preferred it be on.

 When she had her leg on, we just put a sock on with the foam insert and then her leg - all like normal. It all just got soggy and so when she was just swimming around it got heavy and she said it was also falling off a little and so we took it off when she didn't want to do the playground.

She did great though! It's kind of interesting standing on the sidelines watching though because you can see some people staring. That's something I love about kids though, they either don't notice the staring, or if they do, they don't care! Kids are the best! I could learn a few things from that attitude!
