Did you know Marky swims?

  Last spring (yep, 2011) Marky took survival swim lessons with Mrs. Suzi.

Did you also know he hated it? For the first 4 weeks he would scream and sign “ALL DONE!” in a panic. I had to wear sunglasses. As if being pregnant didn’t do enough to my emotions, hearing him was torture.

Then, one day he stopped. (And I stopped crying, too!) Who knew he could learn life saving skills while so upset. But he did.  And he even enjoyed the remainder of his classes.

Did you know Marky learned how to float on his back  to get some air, flip over and swim to the wall/step/human, repeating swim-float-swim until safe.  Speaking of repeating, did you know Marky will be taking refresher courses this spring?

Thank you Infant Swim Resource for offering these awesome lessons. And thank you Mrs. Suzi for your friendship. For info, visit www.infantswim.com.
