Hello 2009

NYE 2008 Sparkles, originally uploaded by aajtb.

The first achievment of the year is a beauty! We went swimming yesterday and I asked Bethany if she wanted to try and swim without her 'bubble'. She said yes and that was that... she can now swim (unfounded confidence, yes, but determination and no fear). The style requires a little work, but she requires no aid, just someone close by, and she doesn't want the 'bubble' back...
