Swim Lessons start tomorrow!

The time has come! Swim lessons start tomorrow, for Kenna and Charly. They are Monday thru Thursday, for 4 weeks. Charly was super nervous about it, because being 8 years old and not knowing how to swim "Is completely and totally embarrassing". Yup...her words! I then explained that that's EXACTLY why she's getting into swim lessons, so she will learn how to swim. That definitely made her feel a bit better. Kenna is just super excited for swim lessons.

I got the girls registered on Friday, for their lessons. Kenna will be in the amazing 3 year olds class, which is a 30 minute class. Charly is will be in the silver class, which is a 45 minute class. Thankfully, they start at the same time, so I don't have a lot of running to do. Charly saw the ages of some of the kids in her class (5 & 6 year olds) and was upset, but the one teacher told her that she is so very graceful in the water, that she thinks Charly is going to be an EXCELLENT swimmer. That made Charly light up! Then, she told me that if Charly starts progressing very quickly, they can always re-test her and move her up to gold level, if needed. After that encouragement, Charly began trying very hard to swim underwater. She could do it last year, but since this was only the second time in the water, this year, she was having a little trouble. She goes under, but isn't quite moving. She'll get there for sure, especially with all the practice.

I can't wait! They'll have so much fun, and I'll get to see all the progress they're making! Be prepared for pictures. :)
Charly was worn out after class registration!
This little fish was having a blast!

Kenna needed a nap! She "ran out of energy!"
