swimming

Too funny...well kind of.


For the last 2 months, Mar has said that she loves to swim. She said she swam all the time in Ethiopia and she LOVES it. I asked her where considering there is a water shortage there. She said in a lake.

Well, her first visit to the pool revealed her lack of swimming experience. We put her in the 3 feet and asked her to show us her skills. She flailed around like crazy almost drowning herself. I plucked her out of the water and put her to the side to await swimming lessons. By the end of pooltime she could float on her back and kick her legs like a normal swimmer. YEH!! progress.

Luke is such a smart boy. He is determined and wants to learn everything. He did the best yesterday and could go under without his nose plugged and swim a little. YEH! Great job Luke.
