Poolside

The Shuler's invited us to swim at the KOA. We were the only ones there, we had the pool all to ourselves. And the kids had a blast.

Heidi and I stayed on the side in the sun and the kids played, taking turns taking care of the Syd, while we watched. For just a few minutes she was left in the shallow end by herself, but she walked out toward the kids, toward the deep end. The water came up around her face and on her toes, she couldn't get her feet on the ground enough to back her self up. She was going under and her sad little face was in panic mode. I jumped up, yelled her name and pointed at her, but the kids were playing and didn't understand me. It all happened really fast, but it's still amazing to me the feeling of complete ease I had. It was so easy to jump fully dressed into the pool and save her. And of course it should be. But the ease was that there was no thought, no consideration, just action.
Later she asked me- Why you jump in that pool, Mom?
Silly girl. I told her- To save you. I will always save you.

You can't really see how wet I am. haha. Maybe because I am ALL wet.
