The Deep End

I just emailed these videos to many of you, but as I was hitting send I realized I should have posted it instead. So, here are 2 great videos of his "safety class" which comes as he nears the end of his swimming lessons. He learned how to call for help from the water as well as help someone (using a noodle/rope) from the side who might be having trouble in the water. I doubt he had any idea what he was really doing but he enjoyed throwing the noodle to the instructor who was "in trouble". After these activities, they went to the "deep end" (only 5 ft) to jump in with life jackets. When asked who wanted to jump off the the starting block, he immediately shouted, "ME!" The first video shows him jumping in with someone in the pool to "catch" him. After that, one of the other boys asked if he could jump in without someone there to catch him. Kaelan wanted to prove he was equal to the challenge which is what you will see in the 2nd video. The hilarious thing is that he doesn't weigh enough to swim with the life jacket on because it encourages his body to float on his back. Please forgive his mother for laughing hysterically!!!
