Swim Wrap-up

Yesterday Kai and Kennedy finished up their last swim class. The second session they had their best teacher so far and really did great. What a difference a good teacher and a year makes for this sort of thing. As an extra special treat Grandma Utah and both of their Dad's showed up to watch the last class. They were very excited about this!

One of my favorite things this teacher did was have them "swim" through a sideways hula-hoop. The first time she did this with them she started it up high with part out of the water and just kept putting it deeper and deeper until it was totally under the water and they were still going through it. They thought this was a super game and I thought it was a great way for them to get going on "swimming" under water.

So we're sad swim lessons are done for another summer, but it will be nice to have next week off. It is amazing how a 1/2 hour lesson 4 days a week can end up consuming your week so much. We'll miss seeing Kennedy, Kimberley and Jack so much though.
