The kids are ready for the pool today! After two years of being on the waiting list for our neighborhood pool we found out last month that we got in this summer! We were so excited! The kids love that pool and have lots of freinds that go there too.
C1 and C2 are almost done with swim lessons and when they started two weeks ago there were lots of tears and complaining...mainly due to the pool being cold. But we talked about what it means to perservere and their attitudes have done a 180 and they actually are excited to go now. Last night Christopher said he wished he could have 21 more days of swim lessons. :o)
They have progressed so much these past few weeks. Caleb swims all the way across the pool with good strokes and is able to take breaths while swimming and Christopher can swim about halfway on his own. I was surprised to find out how much Caitlin loves the pool. She heads straight to the baby pool and keeps crawling in until the water is up to her neck!...i'm freakin out a little but glad she loves it so much.:o)
