swimming

Jakub the Swimmer (and diver)!

Jakub recently finished his swimming course with his school. It was great, and he got put in with the "expert" swimmers. There was only three people in that class, two girls and Jakub. The teacher was really good and pushed the kids to their limits. Jakub loved him and loved the class. On the last day, instead of getting the kids to go down the slide and play in the boat (like the kids in the beginning classes did), the swimming instructor suggested to his three kids whether they wanted to go jump off the diving board. Man, were the kids really excited (including Kubus). Before, Alex suggested to Kubus on many occasions to go jump off the diving board, which Jakub promptly rejected. But this time, when there were other kids, and it was a teacher asking to jump, he JUMPED. I was amazed! Later the teacher asked them if they wanted to jump off the big tower... and they did. Imagine 5 year olds on the big jumping tower. He was so scared, but he did it! I was so proud. Jakub has really come out of his shell recently, and he has so much courage... more than I ever had (I never jumped off the tower to this day).
