Take for example swim lessons. First, keep in mind, Ashton LOVES the water! Last spring we signed up to take swim lessons at Frederick High School with Lily's former swim coach. He sat on he side and cried the entire time. We decided to wait until Fall. Well fast forward to now, the first class he sat on the side, got in one time, and swam one lap with Ms. Diane. The 2nd lesson he sat on the side and refused to get in. I even bribed him with chocolate and lollipops. Daddy told him he was going to take away his lovey pokey. He did not care, he was not swimming. We decided to try one more time this week....major fail! Not only did he refuse to swim, he went into the locker room and changed his clothes so he wouldn't have to swim. Little booger. Oh well, we'll try again another time.
The good thing is he did ask to play basketball and he actually is enjoying it!
Pre-School continues to be an adjustment. He still doesn't like to go. He doesn't like nap time which is a two hour block. A friend of mine suggested we do no cry bags, and that has seemed to work. In the beginning he received a no cry bag with a prize every time he did not cry when I left. Now he is working on not crying for several days in a row!
Despite not seeming to like to preschool the pictures the preschool send us show us otherwise!
