back and document some summer highlights. i just come across this a few
days ago when c shared photos and videos he had of the boys on his phone.
i found this one of scout doing some drills with his fellow guards.
here's one of the video clips c got. scout looks so into it!
{he's in red lifeguard shorts, no hat}
~ i must mention scout was very disappointed with the grommet guards
workouts. he wanted them to be more difficult than they were. after his big
brother showed him what his group {9-12 yr olds} were doing, he had been
practicing push-ups, planks, swimming laps in our pool and running more.
c encouraged his desire and would have the boys run the loop around our very hilly
neighborhood every morning in preparation. he was ready to be pushed. he would
come home every evening and over dinner tell us the jr. grom program was just too
'babyish' for him. c and i reminded him it was probably challenging for many or most
of the other 7 and 8 year olds and that next year, he will get to be with the big kids and
do all those things that finn did {including the pier jump}.
