Winter Swim Lessons

I like to have the kids take swim lessons in the winter, when they're all cooped up inside and needing a place to blow off steam. For the first time in their childhood, the boys were at the same level in their lessons, so I signed them up for a class together.

Ziggy told me each and every week that having his brother in the class is the Best Thing Ever and Gives Him Confidence and Makes Him a Better Swimmer. They have loved being in class together for the ten classes they have done. Campers will be advancing to the next level up, though, while Zig will continue at the same level he just took. No surprise there, as this was Zig's first time at this level and it was Campers' fourth time. It takes a while to "level up."

It's good to see the boys in the pool, loving the water and their teachers and the chance to move and groove.
