Katie in the Water

I signed Katie up for an aquatics class with the city of Lancaster. I had looked all over for classes to get her in the water. I call it a swimming class but they do not actually teach them swimming yet, its more of a water familiarity class. They get them comfortable in the water and moving in it. Katie's first class was Tuesday. Due to my schedule she is taking classes with her Uncle as her adult. Tonight she had her second class.


At her first class she was very reluctant to go in the water. The class is 30 minutes and it took until about the last five till she actually got in the water. Tonight they said it only took her about five minutes till she got in, it was her instructor that convinced her to go.


After he got her in the water she began playing chase the duck with her Uncle, as in she would throw the duck and Uncle would take her to get it and she would throw it again.


She was having fun.


The instructor (I forgot his name) is really good with the kids. During the class he goes around and works with each of them, checking their progress and giving suggestions. 


Katie was really excited tonight when she came home, I think this swimming thing may work out just fine.
