Swimming with Miss Sharisse

Since Delainee was 18 months old, every single summer we would always go to Judy Brown for swim lessons. We love Judy. She is amazing! My kids even refer to her as grandma judy. So in April when we bagan to hear the rumours that she wasn't teaching swim this summer we were devastated. Ü We never can start swimming until July every year, becuz of my working at MCC every summer, so we had a little extra time to try and find someone to replace Judy.

Thank goodness a lady in our ward had someone to refer us to, and they taught RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER! The first day or two, I was a little apprehensive that we wouldn't be getting worked as hard as we were used to. But then she started whippin' my kiddies in to shape. Laetner especially had a special bond with Miss Sharisee, and acted like her teacher's assistant or something. I now know why his school teacher referred to him as the 'little professor' becuz he is ALL about staying on task. If Miss Sharisse tried to change ANYTHING he would remind her of something they had not done yet that day, or that the order was wrong. But I think she appreciated that over the kids that completely ignored her rules or threw complete fits. Let's just say I was VERY proud of the way MY children behaved this summer. The very last day of the first session, Miss Sharisse brought a slide for the kids to play on during class. Everyday of the next TWO week session, Laetner would ask when the slide was coming back. We were promised the last day again, so we made sure to bring the camera, AGAIN...



Thank you Miss Sharisse for teaching my kiddies some very important life saving skills! Ü
