I know that you both have her best interests at heart. I think you are right in knowing that she is old enough to wrap herself in a big fluffy towel when they are done swimming. If she comes home complaining that it is too cold, you can just tell her that you will write a note to her teacher and excuse her from the swim class. You are a terrific mom, and it will all work out for the best. .-= Lorie Shewbridge´s last blog ..<a href="http://wmljshewbridge.blogspot.com/2010/01/social-media-moms-celebration-were.html">Social Media Moms Celebration: We're Going!!!</a> =-.

My kids did swimming lessons in a non heated out door pool. poor things had blue lips by the end of the class yet they enjoyed it. make sure to give her the proper vitamins and a warm fuzzy comfy towel. She will be fine. If she does get cold she won't even notice because she will be having to much fun. .-= Anuan´s last blog ..<a href="http://newworldstoconquer.blogspot.com/2010/01/thoughts-on-guam.html">Thoughts on Guam</a> =-.
