He Can Swim, Kind Of

M's swim lessons are going great and he's so proud of himself. His new sense of pride is the best part of this whole experience. He fairly glows from happiness after showing off his new moves. Sometimes, I see him looking for me during lessons to make sure that I've seen him successfully jump into the pool or swim with "big arms".

M loves the one-on-one lessons with Wendy, and he especially loves the balloon that he receives at the end of each lesson. Okay, maybe the all important balloon, is THE motivating factor. Whatever the reason, M is gaining self-confidence and a sense of pride. It's awesome to watch!
