I have had a bug to sign Cash up for swim lessons. I finally settled on Houston Swim Club. It is indoors. 30 minutes. And once a day, every day for two weeks. When I researched the pools, I took Cash with me to see the pool and he threw a very mad fit when I tried to leave because he wanted to stay and go into the pool.
Then we started yesterday and he was so excited we were there and he couldn't wait to get into the water. And once he did and realized what Miss Michelle was going to make him do. He started crying. But he got settled and had fun. They gave him a sucker at the end and he just kept talking about it and wanted to go say goodbye to Miss Michelle.
Today we drove to lessons and on the way Cash started to say, he was sick and didn't feel good. Then we got there and he started crying when I tried to put his suit on. He said- No, can't put my suit on, no can't go swimming. He was so upset, I thought I was going to cry. So I asked the lifeguard, what do I do? They told me, go ahead and get him suited he would calm down. I did, he cried, really cried, sobbing. They took him and for the first 5 minutes, he cried as Miss Michelle had him floating on his back and going under water etc... I felt so bad for him as I watched from the observation room. But he settled. And I could see smiles on his face. And he had joy again. He emerged from the water with a big smile and got his sucker which he tried to open before I could even dry him off.
As his mom, I was so concerned for him. But we'll be back tomorrow!
