Finding His Inner Fish

Short of jumping off the high dive on his first day of class, Finney’s well on his way to becoming the little water bug his Uncle Eddie was. (My poor Mom.)

After two weeks of Water Explorations swim classes under the tutelage of Heidi, his dulcet instructor, Finney’s now blowing bubbles, floating on his back with assistance, and submerging himself to retrieve water rings (pink and orange are the current faves). All this effort is—in his mind, as clear as the pool water at 6am—to prepare him for the day when he can finally go surfing with his Papa.
