IN PRAISE OF WHITWORTH AQUATICS

If you live in the Spokane area, suck it up and pay for the Whitworth lessons. You will be glad you did.

It's impossible to catch Joseph not moving in the water. He is part fish. I expect him to grow gills in Louisiana.


Joseph doesn't jump into the pool so much as FLY into the pool!


I love this picture of the boys walking across to the deep end. Joseph is the first one.


Last year Daniel could dive. This year he forgot.


I have better pictures. I just can't find them right now. But here is Quinton showing Daniel something. Quinton was the perfect teacher for Daniel!


Matthew hates water in his face (related to his dad) and he would barely touch the water.


Look at him now - jumping off into 15 feet of water, over his head, and back up, swimming, with the noodle the length of the pool and back. Amazing.

Viliami and Lima just started taking lessons--from Elizabeth! :-) Ami's been a fish for awhile now, but Elizabeth got Lima under the water, which is a small miracle.

I want Elizabeth to come visit me in LA and finish teaching Matthew to swim. I've heard she's a great teacher!

Being in the water and swimming is so much fun and a good skill for all kids to learn. It's good that Matthew is now feeling more confidant in the water.
