Kick Kick Kick

Nope, he hasn't started Kung Fu.
He did however start swim lessons this week. Twice a week. He seems to love it, but I think he mostly just likes watching the other kids. He just stares and stares at them. He does really well in the water though. Amy and I looked at each other very strangely when the instructor said, "Ok, now we're going to submerge our babies." It was a weird moment of trusting a total stranger when he says your baby will be okay. But sure enough Simon was fine. I think the kid next to us drank a bit of water during the submerge. He came up coughing with huge wide eyes staring at his mom. Eyes that said, "Don't trust the stranger next time he tells you to submerge me."

All in all it's been a good time. And one of the joys of my job is the flexibility to take an hour in the middle of the day to be at my sons first swim lessons.

Summer is starting soon. Simon will have several new "firsts" next month. First time on a plane, in New York, in the Carribean, etc. We're pretty excited, and very proud to celebrate Julie's graduation.
