Teacher Bonnie knows her stuff. She's been teaching kiddos to swim for many, many years. She instructed me to have a seat and the one time I thought I should try and help, she quickly put me back in my place.
As for Jasmine? Let's see how many emotions can be elicited in 30 minutes. Of course, it all began with excitement, putting on her swimsuit for her first lesson. But when Teacher Bonnie started pouring buckets of water on her head, J started having second thoughts.
And when she got dunked under the water briefly, she felt downright betrayed. Teacher Bonnie looked at me and said, "Strong-willed?" Uh...yeah, you might say that.
The personal injuries were soon forgotten as Jasmine chortled her way across the pool. Maybe I'm biased, but when this kid laughs, she infects everyone around her. Many heads were turned listening to her both scream bloody murder and laugh unabashedly.
In the end, Teacher Bonnie was forgiven her transgressions and Jasmine completed her first swim lesson in style.
