Swimming Lessons

This week we've had the kids at swimming lessons.  This year however, it has been at a new place.  Mrs. Lou Lee has been giving kids swimming lessons for many years and it shows.  She knows exactly how to handle the kids and what to teach them to keep them safe.  She's also a bit of a football coach when it comes to teaching swimming so she's no one to take lightly!


First thing the kids learned was that she was in charge!  After that was established, they learned how to swim.  Well, Owen mostly since Elizabeth is still slightly young. By the end of it, Owen swam the length of a serious pool totally by himself.  Taking breaths and all!  Elizabeth even swam, slightly assisted, under the water.


Mrs. Lou Lee pushed the kids and pushed them hard but they learned more in that one week than they have in all the years prior taking swimming lessons at a different place.  

Thank you Mrs. Lou Lee!
