Little Brother asked me to sign him up for swim lessons. It's been a long wait, but today was finally the first of six lessons over the next few weeks. If you know this little guy, you know how predictably unpredictable he is. I went into the lesson fully expecting tears, excitement, laughter, more tears and I wasn't disappointed!
The first few minutes were rough. Once he was sitting with the class he got excited, even volunteered to be first for all the drills. We even got a few bubbles at one point!
Then, I made the mistake of moving from my seat- just a few steps- but just enough to send this little guy into tears once more. This took about 10 minutes with one of the teachers giving him a pep talk. Finally, it ended in a splashing episode that left him laughing (and nobody else was laughing!)
One down----Five to go!
Then, we headed out to the outdoor pool. Big Brother had brought a friend and found a schoolmate (that makes me sound a bit old, eh?) to play with too!
