Day 40 Joy in a lake

Tonight, all three of the kids and I burst out cheering, as we saw our puppy swim for the first time.  You could just feel the joy and excitement in the air.  We had taken her to this same dog beach at our closest State Park a few months ago and she didn't seem too interested in the water.  Others told us to give her time, she's a golden and she'll figure it out.  Sure enough, after a little coaxing from the three of us, she made it...watching her instincts kick in her doggie-paddling behind was a site we won't soon forget!
