Today Luke was overconfident and a little wild. He jumped into the water when the teacher wasn't ready to catch him, scared himself (and me!!) by getting waterlogged two separate times (just not able to get his feet under himself while his face was in the water - who knew you could drown with a life jacket on?) and getting water up his nose three times which resulted in bursting into tears and being removed from the pool by the teacher.
I'm afraid to find out what Friday will be like as this learning opportunity seems to spiral into an out of control, overconfidence. He's still having lots of fun, though. And his teacher wrote him this mid-week evaluation: "Good job bud. You are getting more confident in the water. Keep practicing those floats!"
