Summer Swimming



All summer long the boys have been in swim lessons. Fortunately, they have been in the same classes through out. Oliver is the youngest because most of the kids are any where from 5 to 7 years of age in their particular "minnows" class. Oliver is not quite where the rest of the kids are, but we are most impressed that he was graduated to that class. Over the course of summer, both boys graduated from two classes to reach the "minnows" class. They are not true "swimmers" yet, however they can swim short distances all by themselves. It's been interesting to watch them grow and become so comfortable in the water.

Great summer right of passage-- the smell of chlorine, coughing up chlorinated water and reaching minnows class without drowning. Your babies are growing UP!

Congrats boys!! I am sure they can now swim better than I can....I taught myself and I am a HORRIBLE swimmer. Thanks for the updates! How are you feeling?
