We went swimming at Nama's yesterday and Brandon is finally over his "fear" of the pool, or so we think. Thanks to Nama for all her work with him, he really trusts her in the water and all our progress is because of her. If it had been up to me (lacking the amount of patience of a grandma), I would have taken him in kicking and screaming. After just a few minutes in the water, he let all of us take him into the water, even into the deep end (on his request). He insisted on holding our hand but he worked on floating, kicking, swimming to the edge, and finding the steps. Hopefully next weekend he will continue with the progress, as I'd like to enroll him in swim lessons again this year (Mason too, since he is fearless).
