Chinquatot Mermaid Princess

In swimming class today, my little Chinquatot (Monkey2's age group) was guiding me through the routines and exercises, when the instructor came over.

"How old is she?"

"Two and a half."

"Really?"

"Well... two and three-quarters," I amended.

"Hmm. She's doing all the things I like to see them doing. She might need to be a Seahorse. That amount of independence... I test them at the end of the session. She might be ready to be a Seahorse."

Monkey1 is a Seahorse. A class together? Little sister is catching up!
