Swim lessons

For the last few weeks, Daniel has been taking swim lessons at DP. He started off not being too fond of the pool. From the pool deck I had to detach him from my legs and drop him in the water to his instructor while he loudly protested. For the first week his lessons would consist of him holding on tightly to his instructor the entire time while he called out for us. Daniel would tell us that he wanted to be at the beach instead of swim lessons. We talked to him about how he needs to be able to swim if he wants to surf with his daddy. I'm so glad we stuck with it. Daniel has improved so much and is even having fun during his class. I don't have to worry anymore about dragging him to the pool while he tries to pull me in the opposite direction back to the parking lot. Even though he still begs to go to the beach, I think he is secretly enjoying the pool.
