Keane's first swimming lesson.

Background:

Initially we enrolled Keane with another instructor recommended by Sri.

But just as fate would have it, we met swimming coach Kian Hoe at the pool on 20th March. It was just a very brief encounter but that had already left Keane an impression.

When I told Keane that he will be taking up swimming lessons, he asked me,"Is it the handsome kor kor ?"

"Nope. I replied. "You will be joining Raghav and it's another coach."

"But I want the handsome kor kor!" He pleaded.

"Huh? Then you won't be learning swimming with Raghav!" I warned.

Keane kept silent for a moment. He thought hard.

Finally, he made up his mind, "I still want the handsome kor kor."

Hmm... I discussed with hubby and we decided to repsect Keane's wishes.

Note: kor kor means brother.

Today is Keane's first swimming lesson.

Before this, I was told that some kids actually cry during the first lesson and could even went on for months.

Hence, I was mentally prepared that Keane will scream his guts out today, and I even made up my mind not to be soft-hearted!

However, what awaited me was a pleasant surprise. He didn't cry.

In fact he was very happy to be in Kian Hoe's class. I am so glad that we respect his decision!

The one hour class soon ended and Keane was already looking forward to his next swimming lessons.
