Swimming has clicked this summer! He has come lightyears from last year. He is doing fantastic and loving every minute of it. Swimming lessons further solidified what we thought he was very close to. Knowing how far he has come since last year makes me so happy, and I am so proud of him for pushing through fear and anxiety. I couldn't believe it when I saw him on the diving board, "hamming it up", and begging his teacher to let him jump. He all of a sudden, "found his confidence" (as he calls it), and was literally begging her to let him jump. By the last day, she had him jump and swim the length of the pool. He was exhausted when he reached the steps, but he did it. As he gets older and more adjusted, his stamina will increase...., but for now, I am thrilled that he is truly swimming! He has no shortage of pools in our community, so I know he will get plenty of practice this summer.
