Swim Lessons

We just wrapped up two weeks of swim lessons.  I decided to do them at the local pool near our house.  I was so happy with this decision!!! They were roughly at the same time which was nice because I didn't have to be there forever or wait in between.  Maggie was in a class which was a step above me being in the pool with her and I was nervous that she wouldn't like it but she ended up loving it!  The very last day she put her head in the water which is a HUGE step for her.  She normally hates water in her eyes and is scared of showers but she did it and then couldn't stop!  I was really proud of her:)

Matthew had a good experience as well.  I ended up putting him in a level that was maybe slightly too difficult for him.  He was sort of in between levels but I decided that he needed the challenge!  We didn't quite get to the pool this summer too much so he didn't get much practice before lesson time but he rose to the occasion and really was doing well by the end of the week!  I was really proud of him as well and he was jumping off the diving board and going down the slide:)
