From A to C











When Ian started swim lessons 8 weeks ago he was terrified of classes and teachers that weren't mommy or daddy, afraid to jump in the pool, didn't want to get his face wet much less put his face in the water, and on and on and on. Yesterday was the last day of our level A-B session and look at him now. Superman jumps in the water, floating and swimming alone on his back, steamboating alone with his face in the water, and on and on and on. He is still tentative about some things, which is beyond fine, and he will work on that. But dang, I never dreamed we would have this much progress in such a short period of time. Later this month he will join Nate in a level C-D class! Nate swims like a fish but needs to brush up on form and fundamental. Ian has form and fundamentals down and needs lot build the confidence to swim like a fish. Thanks teacher Nathan!
