Swim Lessons

This past week we have been spending our time at the YMCA for swim lessons.  The kids have always been little fish, but had no awareness of solid swim strokes, experts at doggy paddle.  After four lessons, Elyse is now doing front and back strokes as well as treading water for up to a minute.  Unfortunately the boys have not progressed as well due to a lack of being challenged by their teacher.  Overall, we are so proud of them; and hopeful that next summer when we go into deep pools we will be able to leave life jackets at home.
