Christmas ideas are hard to come by for Mr. Charlie. I was thrilled when Josh's mom agreed to a GC to the aquatics center where Charlie takes his swimming class. Thanks Nana! This is our second year, third session in this class and I can't believe the difference it made last summer. This boy has NO FEAR when it comes to the water. In fact his lack of fear scares me sometimes. He is so comfortable in the pool and I completely attribute that to this class. Josh gets in the water with him along with an instructor and they work on kick boards, blowing bubbles, floating on their backs and swimming underwater. At the end of the class they even go down the slide and off the diving board - Charlie's favorite! I happily watch (fully clothed) from the side of the pool snapping shots with my IPhone. The thought of squeezing into my super cool mom one piece in January is frightening to me - and anyone else who happens to accidentally look my way! Lucky for me Josh has taken the reins as the participating parent in this arena - I have only had to face the music once! Thanks dear!
This year we are really into wearing our goggles for class too!
Look out Michael Phelps...
