The kids have been taking swim lessons since this summer, and this week they both jumped off the diving board! Evie was a little nervous. She squatted down low and reluctantly rolled forward until she had no choice but to jump in. Eli on the other hand, ran to the diving board,(he knows this is not allowed, but just could not contain himself) then jumped as high as he could and splashed loudly, feet first, right into the water.
I never would have predicted this event back in June when I first started their lessons. Eli had everyone in the pool staring to see who was torturing him into those deafening screams he belted out--for the entire lesson! It was a wonder I even took him back for the second lesson.
