Joshua is promoted in swim class!

Joshua finished his second round of swim lessons today at the YMCA. He was in the Youth beginner class with Miss Seah, and he seemed to really enjoy them because he rarely made the comment that he didn't want to go swim. He learned to dive, yes dive, into the pool from the platform at the end of the pool. He also swam the length of the pool!!! He is learning to swim freestyle and does not like to put his face in the water, but he does it when the instructor asks him to. He is willing to go underwater and hold his breath and he jumps into the water from the edge. We are so proud of you, Joshua! Great job! I asked him if he wanted to take more lessons this Summer, and he said "No"...I think that the novelty of diving from the platform was a bit scary and he's wondering what the next level would ask of him. He told me that he was really scared diving from the platform, but he did it over and over and didn't seem that scared to me. Go, Joshua! Hopefully, you'll change your mind and want to take more lessons soon:)
