Mommy & Me Swimming Lessons

Every summer growing up I took swimming lessons through Plano Parks & Rec.

We thought it would be fun to give Cannon an early introduction to the water, so I signed us up for the Mommy and Me class. It was beyond a good time, and I might have shed a tear when it was over.

Every day for two weeks, Cannon practiced kicking his feet, scooping the water with his hands, blowing bubbles, retrieving rubber duckies, floating on his back, jumping in, and going under. And, while I can't say that he was thrilled about all of it, he was a trooper.

On the last day of swim classes when I was little, Dad would always come and we would all go out for Slurpee afterwards to celebrate our new water skills. So, of course Danny came to watch Cannon and introduce him to a new summer treat. The Slurpee was a little cold for his liking, but Mommy stepped in and finished it off no problem. After all, we BOTH completed two weeks of swim lessons. :-)
