I am super happy that my oldest is enjoying water polo so far. He said it’s been fun learning the skills. I just hope he can step up to the aggression because it sounds like water polo players are pretty tough on each other.
He did his team picture today. He was supposed to wear jeans for the pictures, but he hates wearing jeans. He told me he didn’t have any, but I knew he did (yep, I am the one who bought them). I went into the guest room where he has been sleeping to see if they were in that closet, and he was acting weird. I went to the bed where he was standing and they were under the bed. He tried to hide them from me. Oh my. 😂
Yesterday he tried on the suits. I ordered him a 36 because that’s what his jammers are, but he said they were too tight and didn’t cover his bum when he tried the brief style on (Delfina brand). So I ordered him a 38. I hope they are tight enough!! He said they are, but he’s not used to wearing that style of suit. And, yes, he’s a big dude! The boys suits are $50 and the girls are $92 with $13 each to add number and name. Boys don’t have add ons. The girls suits are Jolyn which I have heard people talk about but don’t know much about.
I am super happy that all of my kids are good swimmers. He’s not the fastest, but he has the skills to get it done! He will also be swimming a lot more in school next year so he might improve overall, too. It will also make him a better coach for our neighborhood team next year. I love living in a place where the big kids teach the little kids how to swim.
