"Who hears these words of mine & puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine & does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house, & it fell with a great crash."

Matthew 7:24-27

Swimming Lessons

Kyler and Norah took swimming lessons again at The Falls this summer.  We did the third session at the end of July/beginning of August.  Norah had a great experience with swimming lessons.  She did the class where I got in with her, and she had a great time.  She did everything the teacher asked her to do, including going under the water one day!  This was her first time doing swimming lessons, and she really enjoyed it.  Kyler had an okay experience this year.  This was Kyler's second year doing lessons, and last year he did the class where I got in with him, and this year he did the next level up, so I did not get in with him.  He went the first day and did great, then we were going in Minneapolis for two days, and when we came back he had a substitute teacher, and that didn't go over very well.  Then on Friday of that week lessons were cancelled.  The next week was better, and he did a good job the rest of the time, but just needs to work on putting his face in the water and going under.  I think part of it is just that he needs to be around the pool and being in the water more.  The only pictures I have from swimming lessons are Kyler going off the diving board. :)

Walking out...

In the water!  He wasn't so sure about this, but I'm glad he did it. :)
