A quick update on the swimming. The kids started another session of lessons this week. They have a new instructor, which was a little surprising. Jeffrey's been with the same instructor for almost a year. He doesn't always deal well with change, but took to his new teacher well. There was one BIG difference in the lesson though.
Jeffrey would ONLY swim on his back. Something must have clicked last week and he became obsessed with practicing it this week. He's doing more of a scull stroke (we call it chicken-airplane-soldier) than a traditional backstroke but it's pretty impressive. Friday when I took the kids swimming in the afternoon, he did a full lap of the pool (about 25 meters) all on his own. And the look on his face when he got to the end was pure pride. I had the same look.
