Carter's First Swimming Lessons

Carter had his first swimming lessons with Ann Buchanan a few weeks ago. There were definitely tears the first day, and the second, third, fourth, and the fifth. The good news was that the tears decreased dramatically each day and he got so much more comfortable in the water.

By the third day he was comfortable with going underwater to pick up the "sharks". Now when we swim anything at the bottom of the pool (i.e. kitchen spoon) is called a shark and he loves to go down and grab them.

By the end of the week he would half heartedly jump off of the edge of the pool to Ann's waiting arms. She was great with him! Always giving him reassurance and lots of hugs.

Isla even came along to cheer her brother on. Well she cheered him on by sleeping and eating but... to each their own!
