When we moved here to Nampa, we decided the kids were old enough to do swim lessons. I believe this was the 3rd session we have done in about 3 years. And each time we can really see the progress they have made. It's so exciting to see the courage pick up. They have especially loved their teacher Charlie. She does such a great job with them and they seem to respond with her. They have had her twice now. She is the one in black.
Addie is in the deep pool, able to swim for quite a few yards without any help. She also puts her head in the water and tried to do the American Crawl. We think she might have some swim love and skills in her! It will be fun to see how she does in the future.
JoJo has also made a huge leap in his progress. He is able to swim pretty well, put his face in the water, and if he sinks....He doesn't panic! He just sinks to the bottom, and pushes his way up to swim a few strokes, and repeats. He doesn't float very well, so this is his way of swimming. At first it made me nervous until I figured out what he was doing. His confidence is amazing!
