For the past 3 summers, our kids have done swim lessons at the YMCA. We have loved having various friends in the same classes with us each year. It is just so special to have these memories with friends and to see how our kids have grown from year to year!
Caleb is now in the BIG kid class that meets in the competition pool. The past two years, I remember both he and I were very nervous about him having to swim in the deep end, but this year was completely different. I was so proud of him for swimming the length of the pool (freestyle and backstroke) and for diving in off of the starter blocks. He really enjoyed the lessons and seemed happy before and after class each day.
Abby enjoyed swim lessons, but she is still quite nervous about putting her face in the water. I can see that swim lessons helped her some, but she and Jon have some work to do over the rest of the summer!
Luke really LOVED his class. His teacher was really good with the three year old group! By the end of the two weeks, Luke was swimming under water to his teacher and to the wall. I loved watching it!
