Big Boy Swim Lessons

Ben is taking 'big boy' swim lessons this session at the Y. No mommy. My whole goal with these swim lessons is not to get him to learn how to swim, but rather get him to interact with the teachers. He is totally weird about any type of teacher person right now. And these are high school girls, not exactly scary people. But this first week we made the progress of him getting into the water (I was sitting on the edge of the pool) and I got to walk away for 30 seconds to take this picture. At the end of class I threw him in for one of the teachers to catch him. Overall, it was not a success, but a small victory. I have 6 more weeks to get him to swim with the teachers.
