ISR - Round 3

So apparently, the third time is a charm. At least when it comes to Hayley and swim lessons. Swimming has finally "clicked" for Hayley and her screams of defiance have now been replaced by screams of insistence. Insisting she wants to swim here, she wants to swim there, and she wants to swim... NOW! I think Hayley's instructor and I have both come to accept that Hayley's technique is not going to be textbook. Because Hayley HAS to do things her way... and her way is not a backfloat, but merely a floating head. BUT, Hayley can now swim. And she LOVES the water. I'll take it.


Luckily, Little Todd seems to think floating is an alright thing. He's taken to ISR lessons much more happily then his sister did. Phewy!! I was worried! While Hayley is done with lessons for the summer, Todd still has a few more weeks before he'll be ready to take Michael Phelps on.
