Where to start???

Let's see....

Since my last update, Ryland has started his second year of swim lessons. This year, our objective was to teach him to float on his back and to learn to come up for air.

Floating...not so much. He hates, and I mean hates to float on his back. He stiffens up and will not do it. Maybe next year he'll be more comfortable with it, but in the meantime, we'll keep trying.

Learning to come up for air - I'm not sure he has the neck strength for this yet, but when James or I help him, he does great!

He is a little fish in the water. He loves jumping off of the ladder or side of an in-ground pool. His confidence amazes me, along with everyone that see him.

See for yourself....
