We decided earlier this summer to start Gatlin in swim lessons. Kyle and I both love the water so much, we wanted to be sure that Gatlin would love it too. So, this past week, Gatlin had a week of private lessons with the head lifeguard, Kyrenda. He really took to her the first day and trusted her right off the bat. By the end of the week, he was swimming back and forth between us underwater! I wouldn't say he is Olympic ready quite yet, but I am so thankful that he will finally put his face under the water! That was our biggest obstacle up to this point. Much thanks to Kyrenda for your patience and TLC with Gatlin. Watch out world, a new swimmer is born!!!
