Seems like my 10 tear old son is having a healthy competition with his friend to see who wins. His friend told us last week that he is joining swimming and would love if his friend ( my son) also joins him. They are both already training for martial arts that drain their energy three times a week. Since the summer vacations are on and kids don't have any plans to kill the time, his friends mother suggested that it was a good idea.

Now, my son had been to swimming classes few years ago and had left it Midway as he lost interest. I reminded him of his last stint at the pool and asked him if he is really interested. He nodded his head in affirmation and there he was at the swimming pool with a coach. He is picking up the lessons well and can now swim within few days.
It must have been just few days that he had joined swimming, he came to me and he told me he wants to join skating classes too. I thought he has again lost interest in swimming and wants to try something new. On enquiring he told that he same friend has joined skating and abacus classes too and he too wants to join him and learn things. I told him to finish what he has taken up seriously than juggling things and learning nothing. Half heartedly he agreed.
Seems like the other guy is a power house who has abundant energy to go swimming, karate, skating and of course learn abacus also. His mom was all in favour of him juggling things saying this is the right time to learn things.
