It's another round of swim lessons at Briarcliff this summer. It's Jillian's third year, and Bridget's first time.
On the first day, Jillian is in the "no floatie" class with a large number of boys who are pretty much fearless in jumping into the water ... meanwhile, Jillian is still very unsure about putting her head underwater. She is doing very well, though, at swimming on her back. Bridget spent nearly the entire 1-hour session crying and yelling for "Daddy" while the swim instructor held her in the pool. At the end, the head swim teacher said that she'd be fine for the rest of the week. A special treat for Jillian is that her pre-school friend Emma is going to the same session.
On the second day, Jillian was still doing fine without floaties, but still not anywhere near putting her head underwater. Bridget had a short cry-fest at the beginning of class when a swim teacher took her into the pool, but then she was fine and actually kicked and played in the water ... though she was always sure to look for Daddy.
