This year we were able to put Kenzie in swim lessons. I wasen't to sure about this but, it was really importent to Ben & I that both our kids know how to swim. I was sure Kenzie would scream and throw a fit. I was worried and warned Gin that she was going to be a handful.
I was so surprised when she walked right into the water and sat down and listened to Gin. Gin is an amazing teacher and can teach ANYONE how to swim. Kenzie loves swimming lessons and is very good durning her session.
On parent day we get to come and watch the kids and see what they have learned. Kenzie could hold her breath under water and flutter kick. She dives off the diving board and tries to swim to the ladder.
This has helped her so much with the water. In the tub now she puts her head in the water and does her clown cheeck.

Kasons turn to swim.
Kason is our swimming PRO! He has taken from Gin for the past 3 1/2 years. He can swim under water the entire length of her pool. He amazes me with his swiming ability. I am so glad they are both in swimming, we are around water all summer. A quick story that just happened. We were out at Newton Dam teaching Kason and Hayden how to ski, the two of them were playing in the water and Hayden threw Kasons stick into the water. Kason without a life jacket started to swim out to get his stick. He realized that he could no longer touch and started to panick. I couldn't get to him fast enough and I could see the fear in his little eyes and then his head started to bob in and out of the water. There was a lady on a tube that grabbed him and held him there until I could reach him. It was really scary but, a very good lesson for Kason.
