I signed up Carson and Chloe for Swim Team this year. We had our first meet tonight. Chloe was terrified that she couldn't swim the half way that was required (even though she's done it). She was just a big ball of tears. I tried bribing her with candy, that didn't work. She finally stepped up when she asked if I would take her to McDonald's for lunch AND let her stay up late and watch a movie in bed with me. She cried a lot tonight, but she did it (with a little help).
I have to wonder if I'm pushing her through her feat and helping her conquer it...or if I'm traumatizing her for life. I hope this doesn't scar her!
Carson did well and swam faster than I've ever seen him do. So fun to watch him.
Also today, Camille had her first dance class. She did so good listening to the teacher and being brave. No crying! Yay!
