Swimming Lessons

Justus and mom have been going to swimming lessons two days a week this month and he loves it!!

He loves the water and is doing really good kicking and digging and pulling to get across the water. He loves the songs and games we play in the pool too and he even sings them at home. He likes to tell people he went swimming by both saying I went swimming and using his arms to make a swimming motion.

Today for the first time he actually enjoyed going under the water and wanted to do it again. He is the best in his class, of course, and he is doing great at swimming up to grab the pool edge and at swimming under water. Today when the teacher passed him under water to me he had so much fun and wanted to keep doing it without giving the other kids a turn. He also had a great time playing on the steps and practicing tight lips and blowing bubbles.
