Swim Lessons

Going off the side.
Cason trying his best.

We put Cason in swim lessons this summer. There is a great lady at our church that has done swim lessons for years and she was awesome! I'm so glad we didn't go through the city. I'm afraid that anyone else would have given up on Cason. He really liked the idea of swim lessons and loved being in the pool but he DID NOT like going under, etc. Just like his mamma! So the first day was awesome and after that every morning was a big fit. We had swim lessons for eight days. I went the first day but since us 3 moms and enrolled our kids together we took turns taking the kids which turned out to be great because he did better without me there but still was afraid. James tried in the middle of lessons to take him and get him a toy for "doing so good" with the stipulation that if he threw a fit the next morning "mommy has to put it up in our closet". So the next morning came, Cason threw a fit about going, I reminded him of the toy deal, and his response: "Just go ahead and put it in the closet mommy, because I'm not going." But in the end, we won, he finished lessons, and the next week on vacation he was going down the slide and jumping off the side like a champ. THANKS MRS. KAYLA!!!
