Aleena Swimming Update

Aleena’s swim lessons have definitely taken a turn for the better. As you may recall, the first lesson ended with me jumping into the pool in my shorts in order to coax Aleena into the water.

Her last two lessons have been remarkably different. She is really enjoying herself, and is picking things up rather quickly.

One of the reasons for her attitude change is that her pre-K friend Mari is also in her swim class. Aleena can be a bit shy when she is by herself, but if she has a friend with her, she tends to cast her fears aside. Last semester, Aleena and Mari did not play as much together, but this semester they seem to have hit it off.
