We have had Charley in swim lessons for many weeks this summer. Henry sits and watches with interest. The teachers at the swim school interact with Henry and he has started smiling when they give him attention. So we decided to do a little swim test to see how he would do. He cried and smiled about 50/50 of the ten minutes in the pool. So we went for it and signed him up.
And BOY HOWDY! We are so proud of him.
He conquered last week without tears. By Thursday he was asking if it was time to get in the pool. And all weekend he kept asking if he had swim lessons today. On Thursday he chatted with the teachers and gave high fives and kicked when she said kick. I love to see him happy, confident, and thriving. Proud of you buddy! I hope he can enjoy the lake next week. And I can't wait for Uncle Greg to get a peek!

Every time I see your hair, I want to cut mine!
So proud of Henry! Love that he is having fun!
I also love seeing the pictures of you with him at tennis, wondering if Charley is taking pictures for you.
Oh...your pictures say a thousand words. :) I'm thinking he knew swimming would be a better option with this weather. Ha! Way to go, Henry!
