One day I wouldn't let her get in a pool, but she kept trying so in her clothes I put her water wings on her (what I call it) so at least if she fell in... Thank God things worked like they did for you. How scary! Plus they say boys are adventurous... get your hair dye ready momma :)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05620304858463524343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4140514887880781187.post-33486055180023226622017-06-19T16:15:26.365-07:002017-06-19T16:15:26.365-07:00Thanking God all was well.

We have a lock on the gate, but he's smart and I just get nervous about him figuring it out. SO glad that he was OK and that your Mama Beast Mode was able to kick in at the right time. We haven't done swim lessons due to my largeness, but I'm signing him up this Fall. Hopefully it helps, kid is fearless!Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14883089486835538679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4140514887880781187.post-43448255165839356552017-06-16T05:47:03.636-07:002017-06-16T05:47:03.636-07:00I still can't believe how fast you were in tha...I still can't believe how fast you were in that pool... my brain hadn't even processed yet what to do in the moment - I just remember whispering "Sam! Sam!" to myself (because, don't scream, Jillian, you have to stay calm!!!) - and you went flying by me. Momma bear instincts at their finest!!! ;) I do think Sam having those swimming lessons is a good thing - he popped up so happy and not scared at all.

He wasn't overly scared, so it didn't traumatized him, but I needed him to see what would happen. We have our pool gated, but he knows he needs his puddle jumper on or an adult. We are dong swimming lessons with him as well and will continue, it's a necessity with having a pool and learning water safety.
