i just have to brag on my son . he has n't always been a strong swimmer , but tonight , after a summer of practice , i was able to see his amazing improvement ! that is amazing hard work pays off and i think it is great that our kids know how to swim . i agree . he was never timid about swimming , but he just was n't real good . but tonight , he was diving ( more of a belly flop ) and swimming on the deep end . how old is he that is great my daughter is 5 i think that will be one of my goals for the remainder of the summer teaching her the basics of swimming without her life jacket . he is 10 . he has been around water for most of his life ; but like i said , he has n't always been strong . this summer , he saw the need to improve . i think that he took his own initiative is what has thrilled me the most .
The child's initiative and determination to improve his swimming skills over the summer.
