Summer is going swimmingly

Saffron and Lisette have been taking swimming lessons for 3 weeks now. Lisette is doing really well, learning new strokes, and swimming all the way across the pool. She does great and she's really improving.

We weren't going to sign Saffron up, but she heard about it and insisted on going. She absolutely loves it! She would live in the pool if she could.

She is getting very brave in the water, and while she won't be swimming laps anytime soon, she is learning valuable skills such as 'hold on to the side of the pool' and 'walk out onto the diving board'.

The boys just started taking lessons this week as well. They are not to thrilled about it, but I bribed them by promising to take them to Fat Cats to play some video games once their done.

We'll see how much longer Melinda can put up with shuttling them to and from their lessons everyday.
