After two weeks of swimming lessons Johnny is much more comfortable in the water and Alex is a lot safer in the deep end. Both of my kids love being under the water more than on top of it which made it hard to hear their instructor at times, but I'm told that improves with age (crossing my fingers). Johnny's favorite thing to do was diving under the water for the super hero diving toys. Alex of course loved going off of the diving board and down the slide all by herself this year. However I think her favorite part of swim lessons was walking with her hands all the way down a long pole to touch the bottom of the deep end and then shooting back up. Neither of them are timid and their over confidence can be a bad thing around water. I'm grateful for swimming lessons to help guide their confidence and they were glad to be in the water every day for two weeks to cool off these hot summer days.
