Look Out, Michael Phelps

Parker recently completed his first round of swimming lessons at Vanderbilt Swim School, and it was so worth it. Last year would have been too early, I think, but this year the timing was right. He was so enthusiastic and not a bit afraid of the water. He was actually a little too brave, and the instructors had to keep telling him to stay on the steps while he was waiting his turn. By the end of the class (40 minutes every day for two weeks), he could swim under water, come up for air, and go back under again, swimming with "spoon hands." He got a T-shirt and a certificate, and he's movin' on up to the Advanced Beginner class next time. We're going to wait until next year, since we're going to the pool several days a week. I think he'll get plenty of practice.

What did Sawyer do while Parker was swimming?
He spent lots of time climbing around the vents, which blew warm air Marilyn Monroe-style.
