Swimming

Sara and Evan have been taking swimming lesson for the past couple of weeks. They have really enjoyed them and are doing so well. I was really surprised that they got right in and did whatever the teacher asked. They both have been scared of the water and wouldn't even think about putting their head under. But, they both got over that fear and now actually enjoy it. They did awesome.

The happy and cold swimmers

Here Sara is actually swimming by herself. Pretty good for her first go round of lessons. +She picked it up pretty quickly. The teacher said she is getting really good at solo swimming. She probably needs one more time at this level and will be able to move up.

Here, Evan is learning how to do a back float. He is just getting over his fear of water so will need a little more time before he is able to actually swim. He did awesome though and I was so happy to see him enjoying himself.

Sara took the whole experience very seriously - surprise, surprise. She is eager to learn to swim on her own. She followed the teacher on everything.

This is how Kamri spent the half hour everyday. She sat here as long as I kept feeding her food.

Are there only three kids in the class? That's good quality time for the kids.

Hopefully Evan doesn't inherit his dad's water hating genes.

I still remember Ben being the oldest kid in the "non-swimmer" section of the pond at scout camp.
