Learning to swim

  
 We have an above ground 12 X24 foot pool in our back yard.  Although we have very strict rules about the ladder being removed so K can't get in the pool by herself, she has always been very good about waiting until she has her floaty on & has her sisters or myself to go in the pool with her..............until last week that is.  Since taking swimming lesson & learning to swim a short distance by herself in the pool, she is suddenly invincible.  After catching her climbing over the pump to get in the pool the other day & managing to get in enough for her leg to get wet, we now have a 6 foot chain link fence around our pool.  Confidence is usually a good thing, but this was too much - & a little scary!  I was so worried that I didn't sleep the night before we got the fence up & even got K up out of her own bed to sleep between my husband & I just in case she decided to head outside to the pool in the morning. She always comes straight to our bedroom when she wakes up, but you just never know.
