Yesterday, my daughter who will be seven next month, passed her swimming examine to move into the next group.
The requirement for many similar swimming places is 25 meters but this group only advances on 50 meters. She swam 168 meters and only stopped because she had to pee.
She got a medal on a nice neck ribbon, a certificate and a seahorse patch for her swimsuit.
She says and does amazing things.

That’s great man. Seven. Wow. You got all those year to enjoy her and see her grow.
Seems like my niece was 7 yesterday. Now she’s 25 :)
The other one is 12.
You must be proud.

So, if she needs to swim through these floods she should be OK, right?

Impressive, but......*ahem*. She was in the water. She swam 168 meters. And she stopped to pee? I'll go out on a limb here and assume she stayed in the water, at least. *chuckle*
