This summer Jacob and Adam did a couple sessions of swimming lesson and both of them did really well. I didn't think Adam would do the lessons since I wasn't in the water. But he just latched on to this girl who was an assistant and only two days (one at the beginning and one toward the end, go figure????) he refused to get in the water. Considering the degree of Adam's stubborness this is consider a success. However if he didn't want to do what the teacher was doing Adam would just ignore him and do whatever he wanted. Yet another Adam trait that didn't surprise me in the least. However Adam is a good little swimmer. Because he still has ear tubes in he should wear ear plugs but he hates them. So he just swims without and sometimes he pulls on his ears but he still swims under the water and everything. He does ask me to plug his ears though if his floating on his back. Jacob is also a great swimmer and he loves the water. We bought a pool pass this summer and spent at least 2 days a week at theh pool. Yesterday was the last day the pool was open for the whole afternoon since school started today. So we spent 3 hours there yesterday. I just can't believe school is starting. Jacob and Adam are estatic for school. I think I'm the only one that is sad.
On the last day of swimming lessons they get to go down the slide. That was Adam's favorite part. He loves the slide. He has to go down with an adult and right before we slide into the water he tells me everytime "Mom, don't forget to take a breath!"
