Swimming Lesson(s)

We recently signed Carson and Hannah up for swimming lessons with the local YMCA. Carson said he wanted to do it....and didn't say much else. Hannah has been asking to go to swimming lessons for a little bit and seems genuinely excited.

Today, I picked the kids up from school and the first thing out of Hannah's mouth was, "Can we go to swim lessons now?" I thought we were doing pretty good.

The kids ate dinner, got ready for the trip to the YMCA and Hannah couldn't stop talking about the lessons. We arrived and went into the pool area....Hannah couldn't wait to get her swimming suit on. I knew we were doing good.

When 6:00 p.m. rolled around and Hannah's teacher was introduced....and it was time to go with him, Hannah decided that swimming lessons weren't for her. Couldn't get her in the water. Carson, on the other hand, ran up to his teacher, jumped in the water, and listened well. He said he had a great time.

Maybe, Hannah goes in next time. Or maybe she doesn't and we wait until next year.
