Swimming starts...

John had his first swimming lesson on friday night, it was great! He is in a class with one other girl, and they are so cute! Both with their little swimming caps and goggles. John was slightly tentative to begin with, but by the end of the 1/2 hour class was trusting the teacher and he and the other girl practiced dog paddle while floating on top of a large floaty mat thing. We chatted with the mother of the little girl, I don't know if she appreciated the wit of dicky and I calculating whether John would be old enough to make it to the london olympics!
