Swim Lessons

Katie and Ella took their first swim lessons at the lake last week. Once they were there they loved it, but every day was a battle. Ella told me, "Mom, the teacher wants me to put my face under the water and I don't want to!" I assured her that she could put her face under the water when she was good and ready and no sooner! Here's a few photos from class...
Katie hanging out have a good time with the kick board.

Katie giving me a smile (and making sure I was close by).
Ella being Ella (i.e., ignoring the teacher and doing what SHE wanted to do!)
Listening a little bit... or trying to decide exactly which instructions she was going to heed and which she was going to ignore.
Ella giving me a big smile... she really did have a good time.
Katie (far end) and Ella (closest) on the kick board with a friend from class in the middle.

They even have "circle time" at swim class!

Ella got splashed in the face -- CLASS OVER!
