Clara's summer school is finishing up this week, and on Mondays her group the fireflies head out to a nearby swimming pool and playground.  Clara had developed an aversion to the water. Patiently, we talked and encouraged, but as every Monday rolled around and we engaged in the ritual morning routine, Clara would say "But I don't want to go swimming today."  This went on for 8 weeks.


Well yesterday she got in and her teacher captured the moment on her phone, and it was great to see her over come her fear.
