A Sucker and Certificate
Natalie made it through swim lessons! The last week, she did really well. On the last day, she really liked the fact that they put life jackets on for the first part of the lesson. She was really getting into swimming with the life jacket. Then, they took them off and marched them down to the diving board one last time. She was scared and ran to me saying she needed to potty. However, we prayed and she at least finally followed me back to the line of jumpers. This time, she had to be thrown in and swam to the lifeguard teacher in the water. She then pushed her towards the ladder and I grabbed her hand to pull her toward the ladder. After that, we were done. She went to get her sucker and slipped on the floor. We grabbed our sucker, certificate and left before anything else happened! It's over for this year!!

I can't remember if this is Natalie's first year of swimming lessons or not. Philip did much better this year being his second go round. Last year he cried loudly with his arms outstretched to me from the floating corral saying he wanted out. This year he marched over to his class daily and was actually trying for a third jump into the deep end on the last day but was told he couldn't due to time constraints. Glad for Natalie that it's done and maybe she'll enjoy it even more next year. I'll be praying for Nicole. Wow, a year old!! That's great.
