The kids finished swim lessons yesterday and I was very proud of their progress. Jayden was diving with great form. She was swimming much better and improved on her kicking. Jacob was a little fish and could run and jump off the diving board and swim to the edge all on his own. The first time I saw him do that earlier in the week, my stomach just dropped. He is getting better at swimming. He isn’t a very good listener in his class because he spends so much time with his head under the water. Today I took Jake and Luke swimming at the YMCA. Since Luke’s swim lessons were a disaster, I wanted him to trust me and like being in the water. At first he clung to me, but we worked on kicking and floating and he even blew bubbles for me. He was so much more confident by the time we left. Jake, he just swims and loves every minute of it. After the pool, we headed to Ames for a movie. We met Jayden, who spent the day garage saling with Mawgee and the ladies. Jayden decided she could live without garage saling. The kids and I saw the movie “Judy Moody.” Then we met Daddy for dinner at his pick, “Giggling Goat” in Boone.
