First Swimming Lessons.

Landon and Kadence started swimming lessons this week.  They have never had lessons and I was very excited for them to start.  They are in a preschool class with just the two of them and one other child.  Their teacher is actually training another teacher in, so they have two instructors for the three of them.  The other little girl had a hard time with getting in, so Landon and Kadence essentially had their entire first lesson with one on one teaching.
I was a little worried about Landon as he is the one who is a little reluctant about the water.  Kadence usually loves swimming and has no problem submerging her entire head in the water.  She was a little distraught when she realized that I wasn't getting in the water with her, but she toughened up and was just fine.  I am not sure she would have gotten in the water without big brother at her side.  He totally surprised me and loved swimming lessons.  He was freezing cold by the end of the 40 minute session, but asked when he could go back as soon as he warmed up.
Waiting for their teacher.

This cracks me up.  I can just imagine what is going through her head, "Mama, what are you making me do?"

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
So fun!  Glad they liked their first swimming lesson and are excited for the next!  I can't wait to see how they progress over the next month!
