Swimming Lessons

Grace and Charlie started swim lessons today at the Y. Grace was excited, however Charlie was beyond excited to finally get to go to swimming lessons.

I took William up to the observation deck and observed. At one point they gave Charlie a ball to teach him to blow bubbles. They were to put the ball in the water and blow it across the water. Well, while the instructor was with another child, Charlie threw his ball a little to far in the water and couldn't retrieve it with his short arms. I watched him nearly fall in the water trying to get it back. He did look up at me in the deck as I was shaking my head at him and mouthing "NO", and "Leave it". I am anticipating him falling in sometime by the end of lessons, just because he gets easily distracted. Don't worry, they have life preservers on, and there is always another life guard walking around the pool that isn't teaching.

At the end of lessons, as I was showering the kids up in the locker rooms, William found entertainment in the lockers themselves. I tried to get a picture of him closing the door on himself, but wasn't quick enough.
