Progress

Tommy started swim lessons this week.  He was SO excited on Monday to swim with his friends, he even wore his new Lightning McQueen swimsuit
Then came time to actually get in the water!  All bets were off, he screamed, cried and had a huge meltdown about going in the water.  One of the pool managers took him from me and sat on the edge of the pool with him till he got his feet in the water while I was hiding in the lifeguard break room!




We have been going to swim lessons every day this week.  Yesterday he sat on the first step of the pool, still not participating, but on the step because he had blue Lightning McQueen in his pocket!  Today, again with blue Lightning in his pocket he went in and participated and had fun!!  YAY Tommy!!  Hopefully he keeps getting better and braver every day!


(not the best video, but it's Tommy swimming with his teacher & the kickboard!)
