At the Pool




To kick off swim season, the girls took swimming lessons in the month of May. They made quite a bit of progress in one little month and I finally feel more at ease when I take them to the pool alone. They know how to float on their backs if they get out of breath and to backstroke to the side. Their instructor, Ms. Reese was wonderful with them and taught them their forward stroke. Here is a short video of each from swim lessons:

Skip to My Lou: a piano duet

Ms. Sandra gave the girls their first duet last week and they learned it quickly...not too shabby for 3 months of piano lessons! And of course I love that they are playing duets together. I hope this is the first of many.
