Charlotte had her 1st swim lesson today with Mrs. Shelley. She had a great time learning her motorboat kick, to dig or scoop ice-cream with her hands, and blowing bubbles. She even practiced jumping off the side and climbing out of the pool by herself. Since this was her 1st time, we had a private lesson with Mrs. Shelley, but come July we will take a Mom & Me group class. She really loves the water and wants to swim, but we are just waiting for her coordination to kick in so she can kick, paddle, and blow bubbles at the same time. Not an easy feat, but if she would would expend half as much energy physically moving as she does repeatedly chanting "Dig, dig, dig, kick, kick, kick" she might move a little faster :)
