Cohen's swim lessons






During the first few weeks of summer, Cohen had swim lessons twice a day. I had originally signed him up for the same ones we do every year, but he has never made much progress in them. He always had so much fun, but he never get braver. The most amazing lady in our ward was doing them and we were supposed to do them earlier in the year, but with the funeral we had to delay. We ended up with two weeks of two a day lessons. He got so much better, but he still has a long way to go to be water safe. He just doesn't have a lot of desire to be out in the "deep, deep, deep" as he calls it. He now can put his head under the water comfortably and he can swim about 75 feet on his own. His teacher says he has the body of Michael Phelps, so he was built to swim. I know that Landon got to be so good the year that we had our own pool. It's the practice that he's lacking now. He is so proud when he gets it and I am proud of him! He loves to watch the video of him swimming over and over. What a sweetie!
