Swimming

It is hot in Delhi. So, now the kids and I spend a lot of time at the pool. Before the swimming season started, Dorian and I talked a lot about swim lessons. He has always been hesitant around water, but he was excited to try. When the day came for his first lesson, however, he wasn't too sure. But, he did get in the pool and try. With lesson two, he wouldn't even get in the water. Hmm...what to do? I hesitated then decided to back off. Then a few days ago, he put on his floaties and jumped right in. Well, not exactly. He cautiously slipped himself into the pool. But, once he was in the took off. It was great to see, especially when he and his friend started doing laps--back and forth and back and forth. They wouldn't come out of the pool. Here is something from his first floatie swimming experience:
