The Clawson Clan and Jackson are taking swim lessons with Mrs. Donna. She is wonderful. All the kids are at different levels. Anna is already a good swimmer, just learning more techniques. This is Jackson's first year without floaties in the shallow in, so our goal is to get him swimming with the correct strokes and to come up to breathe! This is Brandon's first time and he has no fear! He loves the water, but doesn't want to take off his floaty because he wants to be everywhere! Ben, well he is not having it. He would rather play with the toys!
Jackson is learning how to swim the correct way with his arms and coming up for breathes. If he had his way he would swim the whole way without coming up for a breath! That is great if you want to be an underwater swimmer, but we need him to learn the correct way to swim!

Jackson doing his strokes and practice coming up to breathe!
Anna did doing so great! She can now swim the width of the pool in the deep end all by herself!
The reward at the end of the swim lesson is to go down the tube slide with no floaties! (probably his favorite part!)
