Swim Lessons

June 3, 2009

Yesterday the girls started swim lessons. They are all doing well!

Katelyn already moves through the water and easily holds her breath and puts her face under, so she is learning to blow out the air and how to correctly move her arms and legs.

Emily finally got her face wet yesterday. They have to reach into the water and grab a ring. She would stretch her arm as far as it would go and turn her face up so it wouldn’t get wet. After several brave attempts, Emmy put her face in the water. She is working well with the instructors on the swim movements too.

Madison was so cute about putting her face in the water. You could tell she did not want to do it and way psyching herself up. Then she just went for it. When she got that ring and pulled her face back out of the water, you could see her beaming! She was so proud of herself. Mama was pretty proud too!

The lessons run for 2 weeks and I can’t wait to see how they are doing at the end of next week.
