Sweet Swim Lesson Success!

Clare stomping around the baby pool while we wait for the kids'
lessons to start the first day. She didn't have a care in the world,
whereas Xander was feeling pretty nervous.

First moments in the big pool. That grimace soon turned
into a smile -- thank goodness.

Clare has lots of friends in her class: Lexi, Alyssa, and Kaden.

Kicking up a storm and quickly getting comfortable in the pool.

End of the first lesson.

Back again the next day, ready to go!

Xander had a terrible time when we tried swim lessons
a couple years ago. He was terrified and basically just shut down.
Now, on his second day at the Bayside Swimming Club, it's
like he's a completely different kid. So great to watch how much
he's grown.

He was so excited about putting his face in the water (over and
over and over!) that he asked to call Michael at work as soon
as his lesson was over. We go back every weekday for the
foreseeable future, so prepare yourself for many more swimming shots!
