This week finishes up a month-long refresher course with Miss Kathy, our ISR Instructor.  And let me tell you, the difference in Jack's swimming from a mere 4 weeks ago to now is staggering.  Before when Mike would take him into the pool, he would become so clingy that he earned the nickname "Velcro Monkey" because it was like he had velcro keeping his hands tied tightly around Mike's neck at all times.  And now?  Now, he's jumping off the sides to swim towards you no matter if you're two or ten feet away from him.  He is a fish!  And he just keeps getting better.  Which is a huge relief to us now that we have our own pool. 

If you have a little one (especially if you live in Florida or near water) I urge you to check out Infant Swimming Resource and give your child the gift of being able to save themselves if they were to ever fall into water while unsupervised.  We hear of far too many accidents where children lose their lives unnecessarily.

Here's to a great summer!

 Practicing our float!

 We love to jump from the side and swim.

 All smiles by the end!
