Swim Lessons

Us Housley's are not swimmer's. It has always worried me that my fear of water was going to be past down to Cooper. He has always had a hard time in the tub or anytime water is put on his head. So I decided that it was time to start swim lessons. We signed up at The Peak in Brigham City. It has been so good. He hold is breath and swims all around. I am hopeful that I did not pass down that fear of the deep water!
