Last day at the Metuchen Pool. Cooler weather & cold water but that didn’t stop these guys from jumping in! Austen is a proficient swimmer and is very comfortable in the water, diving, flipping, sliding, whatever. A few weeks ago, Austen shared some swimming tips with Gage. Since then, he’s improved significantly!! He can go under water, flip and became comfortable with his strokes. That gave him the confidence to take on the diving board. Despite my fear and concern, Gage had no problem with the diving board and continues to improve with comfortable swimming, with great help from big sister, Austen. It’s been a great summer with huge swimming progress! I think I also got a little better although still not close to the little water monkeys. My goal next summer is go dive in. I feel a little worried just thinking about it!! 🙂 Dada
