This was the last swim lesson for James and Ruthie for the season and Porter will be done in September. The kids have had an amazing summer and done SO well with their swimming. This is Lindsey Newman and she is fantastic. Fitness a la Carte' is the name of their swim school and Lindsey and her mom Mary have been teaching forever! I have NEVER seen anyone teach a child ( or anyone) as wonderfully as they have. Tons of positive praise, teaching parents what to say and how to say it. So much patience and love. They are incredible! At the beginning of the summer Porter was still really struggling to get his 'breath' and know when to pick his head up instead of drowning and Ruthie and James were great at Dog Paddling :-) Now...Porter swims like a fish and knows how to go back to the wall and when to take his breath!!! It's one of those how much $$$ later and now he swims...PRICELESS! Ruthie and James are so good that I could sit on the side of the pool and watch them knowing that they have it down perfect and are excellent swimmers. Landon and I are so proud of our kids! Even Weston - who I couldn't get a picture of because I did the lessons with him - he threw such a fit..but he did it and was so proud of himself after. Seriously awesome. We have taken from Mary & Lindsey for 3 years now and will never go anywhere else...it's a drive to Lindsay Road and Warner, but it has been and continues to be such a huge benefit to our kids and those we know that go there! Thanks Mary and Lindsey, we love you !!!
