Learning to be a Mermaid

The highly anticipated day has arrived!  Anna Kate is now on her way to becoming just like Ariel.  She was so excited before we left.  The coach didn't show... but, thankfully another coach volunteered to take over the lesson.  Earlier in the week, I took Si to group lessons.  Yeah, that didn't go so well, or should I say that didn't go at all.  So, it was very surprising that in the half an hour we waited for Anna Kate's lesson, Silas decided he wanted to have a lesson.  I did not bring his swimsuit, but the coach overheard our conversation and said he can take in his shorts.  It was the Friday before Mother's Day.  What a nice gift.  I was amazed that Silas was floating on his own at the end of the lesson.  Believe me, that is quite an accomplishment given Silas' fear of swimming pools.  Anna, on the other hand, was so excited, but once in the water was quite afraid.  She warmed up toward the end.  What a great day!
