I took James swimming for the first time since the half-term holiday. I’m amazed how long it was since we were going every week before, but what with working away from home, the Swimathon and now moving my training to more of a running orientated regime we just haven’t got down to the pool.
He was really excited to be going, and it ended up being just the two of us as Tiff had a late night baby-sitting the night before. He has really moved on with his confidence in his own ability, and a really proud Daddy swam alongside him for his opening 6 lengths. He tehn refused to go to the training pool, and we spent the rest of the time in the deep end, messing around with jumping, diving, swimming deep underwater, etc. He now seems very natural in the water – a far cry from two years ago where he would fight you if you tried to get him in the water.
We both had a really enjoyable time – a day to remember.
