The day I saw this kit entitled "hero" I knew the perfect use for it. The opportunity to scrap about a day I will never forget two summers ago. And this happened with two life guards on duty and two mothers chatting a few feet away from her in the water. It goes to show it really only takes a split second and your world can come crashing to a hault. Now every time we go swimming in a swim park we all remember this story.






Journaling Reads: I will never forget the day that my
son became my hero. You, Hanna
and Leyna were swimming in a pool at Sunset Beach in Saudi. You were all warned to
be careful coming from one water slide because it went to a slope and into deeper water.
It was not the best set up but I looked on as you all swam on a hot summer day. At one
point as I took my eyes away for one moment to try and sit in a shady spot you came
running to me and said “Mama Leyna went to the deep side” I got up only to see Leyna
slowly being submerged under water. I ran as fast as I could although it seemed like
forever to rescue Leyna. I will never forget her face as she was loosing the struggle to get
to shallow water. I got to her in time, she coughed up water and was now safe in my
arms all because of you my son and my hero. I don’t think I held either of you so tight
before and you blushed as I said “You are my hero and I’m so proud of you” It could have
been so easy for her not to be seen and drown, but not with you on watch that day.
From that moment on you were not just my son but also my hero
