Survival Swim Lessons- Take 2!

We have started the process, and just as i though -- Alexandra still hates her survival swim lessons. lol!

I have noticed some changes though.

The biggest change even surprised the instructor Ms. Suzi -- Alex can talk.

So accompanying Alex's screams and crying comes, "NO SWIM!!! I GET OUT!!!"

The up side- this time around Alex is understanding directions more ... and she's calming down the louder my cheers and praises to her are.

Alex seems to remember the flipping-onto-her-back.. and grabbing-the-wall routines... though she looks a little awkward now that she's a little bigger and stronger, fighting some of the moves more.

And as soon as the short lesson was over, she was totally fine -- 'talking' to Ms. Suzi like they were old friends, and watching the next student (victim) fussing during his lesson.

Poor thing- Alex's first refresher lesson wore her out.  She fell asleep in the car on the way home.

Overall, I think she did very well.   One lesson down, at least a dozen more to go!
