My Jj has started back at swimming lessons. Now at the start of this school term i asked all the kids what they would like to do. Aaliyah wanted to play tennis, Jodeci wanted to do swimming and Luther, well he had no say in the matter, we just told him he had to learn how to swim.
Jodeci is my little water baby. She has no fear and just jumps straight into the deep end any chance she can get. We got to her first lesson and just seeing her face light up was priceless. She couldn't wait to jump in that pool. Now she is pretty good for her age (not being biased at all hehe) when she actually listens and does as she is told. Now all of you that know Jj know that she doesn't do well with instruction and has hard ears (doesn't listen) She also has an attention span of about 1 min so the teacher had her work cut out for her. Now this was going to be interesting!!!!! Lucky for me she was a young girl who didn't take any crap from any of the kids so she put Jj in her place right away. Jj surprised me, she was a little angel and did everything her teacher told her to. She has improved so much and it is safe to say that if she ever fell into a pool unsupervised she would be able to swim to the edge and get out.
That was our main aim .......... To keep our babies safe around the water. Look at that smile on her face below. Now that is a face of a kid who just LOVES swimming. She was so happy to be back in the pool!!!!!
