Today the girls started swimming lessons at aerofit and wow did they show off their different personalities. Honestly it's sometime hard to tell the differences since they seem to switch off every few weeks. I'm always very slow to answer peoples repetitive question, "so do they have complete different personalities?" But more and more lately Pryscilla seems to be more adventurous & Eden is a bit more shy. They've never seen an olympic size swimming pool before so when we walked in they BOTH freaked. Crying, holding on to me, and scared. In the midst of all that their teachers introduced themselves and I made big deals about their pretty swimsuits. That seemed to do it for P. She turned the switch off and was ready to go. Unfortunately until the last 5 min of class we couldn't get Eden to go near the pool. I even resorted to bribery and she didn't care. At the end coach Mat got her to get in an area she could stand. She was still very timid but at least she made it in the water, right!! Pryscilla did great she did all of her kicks, blowing bubbles, and floating on her back and front with the teacher. I'm crossing my fingers for tomorrow!! If you have any "tricks" for me leave a comment please!! :)
