On Friday 10/23 Keelin had her first swimming lesson. The other 2 kids in her class didn't come, so she had her teacher, Angela, all to herself. For this first lesson Angela kept it pretty simple. She got to know Keelin and MJ, scooped water into her hands and poured it over Keelin's head, and swished Keelin through the water on her back. She was very gentle with Keelin, and when she poured water over Keelin's head she made sure to wipe the water off of her face each time.
I thought it was too loud and chaotic in there with lots of kids running around, splashing, and jumping in and out of the pool, but Keelin loved it. She smiled and laughed, and liked Angela. She did so well that Angela said she'll put her face in the water tomorrow. She'll go three times a week.
We have video of her lesson, will post once we get a video area set up.
