Thankfully my children were no where near , as they were with my mother and sis. But my other neighbor came over when we returned only to say these words to me about her 4 year old son who went to the party with them. <br />"Logan drowned this past weekend at that pool party." They saw him at the bottom of the pool...someone dove in and luckily 2 doctors were on hand to revive his lifeless body. He told his mom, " mommy I was bouncing and then i slipped down. I screamed for you."<br /><br />I will never ever forget her face when she was relaying that to me. Never. Her heart was as raw as I've ever seen and she and I cried on that porch thinking of the what ifs. She has much to grapple with .. seeing as they too, took their eyes off for only a few minutes. He also was refusing to wear his water wings.. and they gave in. <br /><br />So , just like your story. There was a miraculous outcome and a lesson to be told as well. <br /><br />I revelled just like you. I watched my girls play and prayed to God, that I would never have "2 seconds." in my life.. that resulted in such a tragedy. <br /><br />I'm so glad for your family. Her story will save someone... someday.. it will save someone if she shares it. I will remind someone, just as you have reminded us.supahmommy- somethin's wrong with that girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08216064025672866624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173768178144345607.post-71882751127273674722009-08-27T02:38:16.965-05:002009-08-27T02:38:16.965-05:00I didn't wait till tonight, I left the compute...I didn't wait till tonight, I left the computer and went straight to my son and hugged him. I thanked God for him & prayed that he would always keep him safe. <br />I also thanked him for that little girl, I'm so glad she's ok.<br />Now I know why prays are is important. I know that they work and I shouldn't ever turn my back on the power of prayer.<br />Love to you & your daughter xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17266711293046712178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173768178144345607.post-35878063702339708562009-08-26T23:39:14.363-05:002009-08-26T23:39:14.363-05:00Totally on the mark, NO one is perfect and we all ...Totally on the mark, NO one is perfect and we all are busy, tired and we all push the limits just to get us though the day.....EVERY mother has been guilt of a similar act as you cousin, ITS just us mumma's trying to juggle everything.
