Just Keep Swimming, Just Keep Swimming . . .

L recently completed his 2 week course of swimming lessons through our Park Board.  All of 3 of my kids were born with fins, as they would love to live in the water.  We spend as many days as we can at the pool, and they are just as happy as clams.  But of course, we all know that learning the fundamentals of swimming is extremely important.  L has been at the same level for 2 years now, but he was bound and determined to pass this time.  And HE DID!!!

He was one happy boy!  It's the tradition of the program that on the last day, the kids get the last 10 minutes of lesson time to have free time in the water.  In past years, L could always be found jumping off the diving boards or going down the slides.  But not this year . . .  he wanted to show off his new found confidence in the water just swimming around.

And showing us a few tricks . . .

This is the face of one extremely happy little fishy!  Congrats L!  

Just in case I haven't mentioned it before, I love summer!!
