Phoneage

so my phone died tragically today.
We were visiting my husbands parents and they had his nephews with them and we all went to the hotel where the were staying with the smallest pool I've ever seen a hotel have. It still went to five foot deep though. And my younger brother went with us, he's staying with us for two weeks.
Well, a mom and her young daughter come out and the little girl gets in the pool with the two boys, (6 and 11) while her mom starts blowing up her arm floaties.
The tiny little girl starts walking out into the water and it gets too deep for her far too quickly. Relly's mom starts yelling to the older of the boys but he is underwater and doesn't hear and I realize the girl is completely underwater except her hands. Commence adults trying to problem solve how to reach her but none of them want to jump in, or at least they hesitate. So I jump just as the mom says it's ok I've got her, and as I hit the water I say too late and lift her out of the pool to her mom.
Lexi turned six yesterday and I hope that she doesn't stay afraid of the water. She's a gorgeous little girl. She finally started swimming with the pool float around her shortly before they left, so I hope I helped her be less afraid of it. Not getting back in could have had her afraid of the water for a long time.
Anyway, the phone started vibrating as soon as I was out of the water and definitely is dead now.
So I will have a new phone soon, but if you can't reach me through my phone, it's because it doesn't work now.

After, I stayed in the pool and played with all the kids, and after running to Walmart to get me new clothes, relly and my brother got in the pool too. The mom and girl left after about half and hour, the mom wanted to leave almost as soon as she realized other kids were there.
We played with a blowup beach ball for several hours. I'm worn out.
