Wonderful News



Today, I received an email from the mother of a former ISR student. His name is Evan and is 26 months old. Hearing things like this is what ISR is all about. Nothing can take the place of adult supervision, but accidents can happen in an instant. As a mother and an ISR instructor, I believe in the effectiveness of this program. Here is some of the email written by the little boy's mother:

"...was a success! Just wanted to let you know...this evening my mother-in-law and I were playing ball with Evan around the pool. He was fully clothed. The ball went into the pool on the other side of where the two of us were standing....... He was bending over and couldn't get the ball. He wanted my help and I was just about to go to him when he fell head first into the pool (deep end).

.....HE DID IT...turned over and floated right to the top on his back. He whined some and I held my hand out and said, Evan get mommy's hand (I wanted him to flip over), he wouldn't, so I went ahead and pulled him out. No trauma what so ever...his next words were..."play basket ball, mommie"?

I could care less if he doesn't swim the rest of the summer...what just happened is why I invested the time and money into ISR....well worth it!"
