Joel entered the pool without crying today at swimming lessons! We had the beginnings of tears in the locker room because Daddy wasn't there yet. Apparently, Mommy isn't good enough when it comes to feeling secure at the pool. Greg took Kari and Joel to the swim lesson pool Friday night for the open swim time. We were hoping that maybe a positive, safe, fun experience in the same environment as swim lessons might help Joel feel better and not panic. It appears to have worked (for today's lesson, at least--no guarantees). Just better make sure Greg can make it to the next lesson!
[Sidenote: Kari is doing GREAT! She's already swimming (I use the term loosely) across the pool and treading water a little.]
