First swim of the season...

...and MEO and DTO were ready to head on in to the pool!

After a good solid week of tinkering with the chemicals, days and days of filtering out the frog pond funk I think the water is just about ready for some fun. I have been having a little trouble with the ever finicky pool heater so the kiddos had to suffer along with a pool merely heated to 80 degrees. They endured and managed to get a little lesson time in, fussing and all.

DTO has regressed a little bit in his willingness to jump on in and swim, which is normal.  Spoiled by eyegoggles and reticent after a year off swimming, he is reluctant to put his face in and really swim.  I am committed to getting that boy really swimming this summer, now that I will have some time to actually work with him, instead of merely teaching everyone else's children to swim!
