Swimming Lessons

It's summer!  Time for swimming lessons!

My kids love being in the water, but being told what to do in the water - not so much.  They have a real love-hate relationship with swimming lessons.

Enoch did well in swimming - once he decided it was okay.  He is still trying to be comfortable with his head in the water.  He made great improvement and is doing great with his strokes.

 Kate had a great time taking swimming with Taylor and Brynne.   Her strokes are looking so good and she is probably my one who is most comfortable in the water.  She particularly enjoyed the water slide.

 Guard really enjoyed the water, until he had to go under.  We spent the first week just being okay with this.  He would tell Makiah, "Not today, no going under today," and then point back to the stairs.   By the end, he was a pro.  A cute story - Leah was scared of going under the water too.  After she went under one time, she started to cry.  She came back to sit on the step next to Guard.  He gave her a hug and told her it would be okay.  Sweet boy!

Another season of swimming lessons - it was great!
