Ana saved a young mans life who had a seizure in the pool this week. I'm so proud of her. I would've  ignored the  teen who went completely still. I have the idea that if a kid is being good, quiet,
or better yet -still,  then you don't bother them. Thank God  Ana thought otherwise.

When I was lifeguarding years ago I rescued two folks in trouble--one little kid who hit his head on the diving board and went straight to the bottom of the pool...another case when a massively overweight gentleman has a massive heart attack.

The kid survived...

Ana will never forget her experience. It is a big knock on the head on how fragile human life is.

Bravo Ana!

In about 100 years from now, what you did will be one of those things that people will remember.

I remember being really impressed with Reagan just for the Lifeguard score when I found out about it just a few years ago.


We colored eggs today with those 'store-bought' dye kits. Even tho I have the vinegar and food coloring in the cupboard. Sigh.

It's a good think I have a carpet cleaner. Dudley's did a dye job on my kitchen chair pad.

Ana is always complaining that her body doesn't look like twiggy or one of those skinny models- who we feel obligated to look like. I've been telling Ana for years that God gave her the body she needs to get through this life. God gives us the bodies we need to fulfill our vocations.( I believe) It was interesting because I said, "Ya, know Ana if you weren't as strong and muscular as you are, you wouldn't have been able to save that kid." The dots are finally coming together in her head.

I think if she's strong and healthy she must look quite a bit like Ester Williams!

Gorgeous!

Now that I'm older, skinny doesn't look so good.
(Fat doesn't either.)

Skinny ole ladies are sad and frail looking.
