Swimming lessons again






As soon as Bella's first session of swimming lessons was over the next Monday the next session begun. These lessons were at the Spanish Fork pool, and were for Hunter and Bella. We had them everyday from 11-12, it was a long two weeks. Hunter's swim lessons were first and then it was Bella's turn. Next year I will need them to be at the same time for me to survive. The funny story about swimming lessons was that on the first day of lessons. Bella went and found her number were to meet her teacher. I left her at her number and went back to sit down and just watch her. A few minutes later she was walking towards me to get out of the pool I was wondering what she was doing. Then I looked back and saw who her teacher was, it was a boy. I knew at that moment what her problem was, she has a fear around boys she doesn't know. So I got her moved into her cousin Calin's class, that of course had a girl teacher. She loved it after that funny girl.
On the last day of swimming lessons they let the kids go off the diving board and slide. I had butterflies wondering if Bella would go off the diving board. I motivated her and told her that if she did it I would buy her a treat. Well the bribe worked. She did it not once but twice. Go her I think I was more scared then she was. Hunter complained the whole summer that I put him in swimming lessons that he was to old and already knows how to swim. I think he learned how to swim better. I know that he had a good time. Well and he doesn't know this but he better be ready for next year because he is doing it again.
