Silvertip Mountain What I want

Adeline seemed satisfied with the answer and Niita gave a silent sigh of relief. She really wasn't good with the whole explaining-situations-that-are-quite-difficult-to-explain-to-children. 

Niita smiled as Addie slapped the water, making little waves, before splashing a bit at her playfully. "First of all, we have to go out where you can actually swim," Niita joked, nudging Adeline out to deeper water where it would reach up to her belly. It would allow her to stroke out and learn to swim but she could still reach the bottom if she floundered.

"Now you're going to want to keep your head above water and kick you legs," Niita instructed, propping a leg beneath her as she spoke. She reached down and gently grabbed Adeline's scruff so that she could keep her afloat and still move along with Addie as she kicked.
