This is Ella and Samson. He's been teaching her since the beginning of June but she finally moved up a level to Ms. Jen's class. It was time really. Ella has had the skills for a while but Samson has been teaching her because she is his favorite. The feeling is mutual and I believe him to be Ella's first crush. Her last day with Samson was the first day of this session and a class of 4 new little girls (up until this it's been just Ella or another boy or two.) For the entire class, Ella vied for Samson's attention : "Samson look at me!" "Look Samson, I floating!" "Samson, over here!"... Now that she is with Ms. Jen and 3 other boys, her skills have continued to improve. She's not distracted flirting with Samson, and as the other boys are better, bigger and older, Ella is working hard to keep up. She's even able to go down the slide in the deep end and swim back to the ladder with no help. Of course she still gets 5 minutes before class starts to sit with Samson and tell him about her day :)

I have a crush on Samson too!! e
Erin, you should ask if he does adult swim lessons and forget how to swim on your next visit down!
He is a cutie! Local surfer boy and all that... I was thinking what to get him as a thank you for all the good he's done with Ella and thought a gift card to Dave and Busters (an adult Chuck E Cheese) and then I learned he's only 20! The BOY isn't even old enough to drink... nothing like a crush on a 20-year-old to make you feel old hey? LOL
so perhaps a gift certificate to chuck'e'cheese is more appropriate! hee hee!
