Tomorrow is the last day of swimming lessons - the day Mr. Mister gets to finally go down the big blue waterslide. Today he had to jump off the diving board (or be dropped off of it by one of his teachers to the other teacher waiting for him in the water). He had a life jacket on and they wanted to teach the kids that the life jacket will keep them above water. It was a pretty traumatic way to learn that. It seemed to be a fine line between pushing him to do something outside of his comfort zone and torture. So I was glad when afterwards he was really proud of himself. Good thing tomorrow will be more fun!
