Ruth began taking swim lessons at Metea, which means that every morning for two weeks she walked the same route Jake walked for four years.

She had a great experience and is now consumed with mastering swimming. She wants to practice what she learned day and night. The only inhibiting factor is our lack of easy access to a pool.

So in order to stay active when swimming is not an option, we go for bike rides. She has now experienced the prairie path–a bit step for this six year-old.
