Swimming Lessons

We finally got Serenity enrolled in swimming lessons. She loved it! Eric took her to the lessons, although parents only got to watch on the last day. After every lesson she loved showing us what she learned! She learned to kick her legs, “rocket arms” (where she put her arms straight ahead hands together. I called it swimming like Superman when I was taking swim lessons.) She also learned to “pop” where she ducks her head underwater briefly. And she learned to back float, which comes in very handy at bath time as she can now get her own hair wet. She loves practicing her swimming skills in the tub. =) They also taught her to always yell, “I’m coming” when jumping in the water as a safety measure. So now her bath toys often yell “I’m coming” before she dunks them. I was thrilled when we got to watch her on parent’s day. She did everything the teachers asked her, and was very good when she was supposed to be sitting on the wall. Although she did often ask, “is it my turn?” she didn’t complain when it wasn’t. Such fun!
