Dedication: happily cheering on your child on the pool deck while the heat index rises to 122˙F and not being able to get into the cool water yourself...
That was how today was spent!
This swim meet was at the Main Base pool - Green Beach. A great 50 meter pool vice the usual 25...
Stefan was excited before the meet and still excited after. This is a big step in the Anthony Kingdom!
He had invited Miss Jessica to come and watch. She has been his swimming instructor this year and it is she we have to thank for what he is accomplishing! Jessica came and brought Jean with her - a really fun surprise!
At one point, he and Matthew had another visitor
The BUTTERFLY!
He improved his backstroke and actually finished...
on his BACK this time (woot-woot! Thanks Jessica!)
He signed up for a "new" event this time: Breast stroke
And he did very respectably! Eric and I were impressed.
Along with how well he has been doing and responding to this, we are really pleased to see how he encourages others... What I thought, from the poolside, was a double-barreled-finger-pistol, was, in fact
A dual THUMBS UP!!! That's my boy!!!
